Transitional care: an omitted care unveiled by the pandemic

Abstract

In the international literature, there is a growing interest in omitted care in clinical practice in health, particularly in nursing, where a set of care essentially related to non-pharmacological interventions are omitted or delayed and undocumented. Errors by omission have translations in patient safety and impact their comfort, prognosis, hospitalization experience, functionality, and quality of life.
