To improve the working relationship between family caregivers and health care providers, the United Hospital Fund has launched the Next Step in Care website: http://www.nextstepincare.org/.
The website offers a range of guides and checklists most intended for family caregivers of persons with serious illness, with some specifically for health care providers, designed to make patients' transitions between care settings smoother and safer.
This website, the first stage of the campaign "Next Step in Care", will engage hospitals, nursing home rehabilitation facilities, and home health agencies, as well as patient advocacy groups and other family caregiver-focused organizations, in addressing a range of transition-related challenges.
