6 Sick people don t learn well. More than half of patients over age 70 years responding to a post-hospitalization telephone survey did not recall anyone talking with them about how to care for themselves after hospitalization. Journal of Hospital Medicine, September COACHING METHODOLOGY: INCREASING PATIENT ENGAGEMENT Care Transition Intervention or coaching model created by Eric Coleman, MD During a four-week program, patients are supported by a transition coach, and learn self-management skills to ensure their needs are met during the transition from hospital to home.
