Hospital-to-Home Treatment Transition

The availability of phone access to hospital staff at any time was consistently described as reassuring and central to the at-home setup, even by patients who rarely used it. Individualised nurse training at the outpatient clinic, addressing each patient's specific concerns, was identified as a key facilitator for a secure transition. Most patients experienced some degree of uncertainty during initial home treatments, but this faded after several administrations in nearly all cases. Some patients timed treatments to coincide with hospital opening hours so that assistance would be reachable if needed.
