Implementation of the virtual transitional care stroke intervention for older adults with stroke and multimorbidity: A qualitative descriptive study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Older adults with stroke and multimorbidity experience frequent care transitions, which are often poorly coordinated and fragmented. We conducted a pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the implementation and effectiveness of the Transitional Care Stroke Intervention (TCSI), a 6-month, multi-component, evidence-informed intervention to support older adults with stroke and multimorbidity using outpatient stroke rehabilitation services. The TCSI was designed to support self-management, improve health outcomes, and enhance the quality and experience of care transitions.

Objective

To explore the facilitators and challenges to implementing the TCSI, from the perspective of healthcare providers (HCPs) (n = 12) and Managers (n = 3).
