Additionally, when a patient is discharged or transferred, the organization is required to give information about the care, treatment, and services it provided to the patient to other service providers who will provide the patient with ongoing health care. While there are many people involved in the process of handing off a patient from the acute care hospital to home care, more and more agencies are using a home care coordinator.
