Description
Roman Ayele and three co-authors interviewed in 2023 the clinicians who hand off elderly veterans with dementia between VA and outside hospitals. Veterans who use both systems risk lost information at every move. Twenty-three staff across both worlds described what helps and what blocks a safe transfer.
Outside hospitals often sent discharge news late, leaving the veteran, a poor historian by condition, as the messenger. Short staffing for coordination added delays and family frustration. The findings point to unglamorous fixes: faster discharge messages and enough coordinators to chase them. Families, the staff added, feel the gaps first.
