Care transitions can make or break a patient’s recovery. When patients move from hospital to home or to a new care facility, missed communication, family confusion, and unsafe environments often lead to setbacks – or even rehospitalization. But true care transitions require a team approach . It’s time to move beyond facility-based silos and embrace community-wide collaboration - because no single provider can do it alone. By working together across disciplines and engaging caregivers, we ensure patients move to the least restrictive environment with the support they need to thrive.
practical, evidence-based strategies to ensure smoother transitions, improve outcomes, and reduce the stress that so often accompanies these moves. Discover how to teach families what to expect and how to advocate for their loved one’s care. Learn how to incorporate transition planning into discharge prep, address psychosocial challenges like anxiety or depression, and guide patients through functional activities they’ll encounter in their new environment. Plus, we’ll show you how to collaborate more effectively with case managers, social workers, and healthcare teams to create seamless transitions that prioritize patient safety and independence.
Equip yourself with the tools to confidently support patients and families through one of the most challenging – and crucial – stages of care. Because a well-planned transition isn’t just a checkbox; it’s the bridge to better outcomes, greater independence, and a stronger support network for both patients and providers .
Kara Welke, OTD, OTR/L, CLT, CAPS, SHSS, has had a wide variety of experiences and has worked with pediatrics through geriatrics in various settings. She even ventured away from traditional occupational therapy for a few years and had the privilege of starting an Early Head Start program from the ground up and was the director of the EHS program. Kara taught in an OTA program as well as served as the academic fieldwork coordinator for approximately 8 years. In order to provide client-centered, occupation-based, and evidence-based practice, Kara started her own Mobile Hybrid Practice to help older adults age in place in 2018. This business has grown significantly over the years, and she now has over 15 employees and contractors providing a wide array of services. Her business not only has its own client population, but they also provide services to other agencies and businesses. Due to the lack of resources for helping therapy professionals start their own business, Kara created the Next Level Occupational Therapy Facebook group. It was through this group that it became apparent that all therapy professionals needed assistance in starting their own business and that is when the Therapy Business Builder program was started. Kara has helped hundreds of therapists get to the next level in their career through her programs.
