Rationale and study protocol for the Nursing Home Compare Plus (NHCPlus) randomized controlled trial: A personalized decision aid for patients transitioning from the hospital to a skilled-nursing facility.
This paper describes the design and rationale of a two-arm randomized controlled trial designed to test the effectiveness of Nursing Home Compare Plus (NHCPlus) compared to usual care only, in a sample of patients being discharged from the hospital to an SNF (N=229). Assessments were conducted within 24h prior to patient discharge and 30-days post discharge. A primary outcome to be examined was the use of NHC.
