Grant Activity:
Reducing hospital re-admission for high-risk Cardiology patients
Purpose:
RECARD study will optimise medication management of cardiovascular patients (those with a heart attack or heart surgery), by safely transitioning them from the hospital to community care, through designing and delivering an evidence based transition of care (ToC) service. This study will work closely with patients, their families, community and hospital clinicians, to design the new service model. We will build on existing Indigenous cardiac care programs to enhance impact through a culturally appropriate service, that is tailored to patient needs. The ToC service will then be tested across 3 hospitals in Queensland, and evaluated for how effective it is in reducing medication harm related hospital re-admissions and cost effectiveness.
