Abstract

The article focuses on the challenges of transitions between healthcare teams during pediatric hospitalizations, particularly for children with medical complexity (CMC) and those transferred from the PICU to the general floor. Topics include the risks of medical errors and family anxiety during transfers, the critical role of provider communication in preventing adverse events, and the need for improved handoff processes to enhance patient safety and satisfaction.
