Abstract
Discharge planning for patients with bone and joint problems is one of the factors influencing a health service system because discharge planning is a medical care process to promote safety and improve quality of life, specially in the elderly with hip fractures. This elderly group are at high risk for complications and mortality in both hospital and at post discharge as their conditions and functions are deteriorating. These patients need rehabilitation and functional recovery to be independent for their daily living activities. Nurses play important role to promote the ability of the patients and their caregivers in providing effective care as they are the health personnel who spend 24 hours with the patients since they are admitted to the hospital until discharged from the hospital. Therefore, the acute care orthopedic registered nurse plays a key role in assessing, communicating, and responding to the continuing care needs of patients and their families, coordinating community resources, and formulating a timely discharge plan to maximize rehabilitation and recovery.
