Transitions of care, particularly from hospital to home, have been a focus of the health care system and an indication of quality care. This presentation will present an overview of what we know from the research on transitions of care and where we go from here. With the expected challenges to the health care system from the aging population with increasing amounts of chronic diseases, a targeted focus on specific patient groups may be in order. As well, there are other transition points where more evidence is needed.
