[Coordination to assist with hospital-to-home discharge after cerebral hemorrhage--perspectives of a patient's family and nurse].
Discharge support, although provided for a limited time, is of vital importance in the acute phase care period. Such support is necessary to ensure continuity of care and treatment even after being discharged from the hospital. I acquired both the viewpoints of the family and the nurse of a patient who was about to be discharged from the hospital after cerebral hemorrhage. However, the patient's family and I were not able to decide on a home care plan or hospital-to-home transfer ahead of time because of the unstable condition of the patient, limited care power of the family, and varying discharge plans among the family members. I intended to help in the decision-making process, taking into consideration the patient's best interest. I evaluated the viewpoint of the family and was able to understand situations in which a family member, who assumes the role of a primary care giver, would need guidance in providing home care to the patient.
