Abstract

The aim of exploring transition theory is outlined in its concepts and application uses in nursing practice. Literature review methods applied precepts to demonstrate the theory’s usefulness in care management. Results validate transition knowledge identifies wishes of patients and families as a method of joint communicating and decisions on choices for healthcare. The process of making decisions for transition post discharge requires knowledge of the theory. In conclusion, identifying patient/family needs and clarifying what is required to resume self-care after treatments incorporates either immediate or long-term identified needs. Nursing and medical scholars have added transitions to processes within acute care hospitals to address the needs of patients and families.
