Summary

Despite high risks of readmission and complex medical needs, there are no transitional care standards in the U.S. for patients with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) discharged home from acute hospital care without inpatient rehabilitation. To enhance the standard of TBI care, we will develop and refine a patient- and family-centered TBI transitional care intervention that addresses specific needs and preferences for patients with TBI (age \< 65 years) and families and will assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the intervention.
