Patient discharge is the process of formally releasing a patient from a healthcare facility, such as a hospital or clinic, after they have received treatment. This process typically involves a healthcare provider assessing the patient's condition to ensure they are stable and ready to continue recovery at home or in another care setting. During discharge, patients receive important information, including instructions for follow-up care, medication management, and lifestyle changes. This information is crucial for ensuring a smooth transition and preventing complications after leaving the facility. Proper discharge planning helps improve patient outcomes and reduces the likelihood of readmission.
