Navigating care transitions: a process model of how doctors overcome organizational barriers and create awareness.
Using interviews and observations of doctors, the researchers examined transitions from an emergency department to inpatient units through a 2-year study of an academic medical center. They describe and document 3 challenges to between-unit transitions of care and identify the adaptive workarounds that doctors employ to resolve these challenges, thus addressing a significant gap in the literature on high-reliability healthcare organizations.
