The Connection Delivery Model: reengineering nursing to provide care across the continuum.
The Connection Delivery Model, a positive approach to reengineering nursing care, provides continuity across the care continuum. This model is consumer oriented and emphasizes education and prevention in providing care to high-risk, high-volume patient populations. Acute care nursing staff, cross-trained to provide home care, have found this experience positive and professionally rewarding. The challenges to provide cost-effective patient care are easily met utilizing this model.
