                                    Care-coordination at all levels of care have become challenging with the constant changes of healthcare and staffing shortages. As a result, it is important for healthcare systems and individual providers alike to assess whether their care coordination efforts are benefiting their patients and organization. One way to do this is to utilize quality improvement strategies such as PDSA, chart audits, prioritization matrix and teach back. Highlight the importance of collaborating with community stakeholders and healthcare partners to decrease readmissions.
