Summary

The goal of NEEDS is to systematically identify patients' needs and resources at home to inform discharge planning by health care teams. We believe the process of conducting such an assessment during hospitalization will integrate the patient's voice and improve patient outcomes by improving the team communication, quality of discharge planning, length of stay, post-discharge outcomes (e.g., satisfaction), and readmissions.
