Development and validation of the hospital-to-home-health transition quality (H3TQ) index: a novel measure to engage patients and home health providers in evaluating hospital-to-home care transition quality: a novel measure to engage patients and home...
The objective of this multisite, mixed-methods study was to describe the development, initial psychometric validation, and feasibility of the Hospital-to-Home-Health-Transition Quality (H3TQ) Index to identify patient safety risks. The H3TQ demonstrated feasibility of use, stability, construct validity, and concurrent validity when tested on 75 transitions in five home health care (HH) agencies in rural and urban sites across the U.S. The authors concluded that H3TQ was a novel measure to assess the quality of hospital-to-HH transitions and identify transitions issues, and that their study findings can guide the design of interventions to optimize quality during high-risk hospital-to-HH transitions. They also noted that patients, caregivers, and HH providers offered valuable perspectives and should be included in safety reporting.
