What is the theory behind this Discharge Planning Checklist Worksheet?
A discharge plan includes all the information an individual may need to be aware of regarding their condition and stay at the hospital or facility. It is to ensure the individual being discharged after proper care is fully aware of what they need to do to manage their condition now that they are leaving the facility. A lot of times clients are unaware of this and a discharge planning checklist can help them immensely in making sure they have all that they need.
