A new tool to assess clinician experience with patient care transitions.
The authors developed a brief survey to gauge clinician experience with patient care transfers that occur within a hospital. They found that, overall, the survey was feasible to implement and was built to optimize content, construct, and response process validity. Survey results drove practical improvement work, such as informing a verbal transfer protocol to improve nursing preparedness to receive patients on general medicine units. They concluded that, as a practical tool, the survey and its results can help hospital administrators to focus on categories of transfer activities that are most problematic for clinicians and to track trends for quality improvement.
