PRACTICE RECOMMENDATIONS
› Use risk stratification methods such as the Probability of Repeated Admission (Pra) or the LACE index to identify patients at high risk for readmission. B› Take steps to ensure that follow-up appointments are made within the first one to 2 weeks of discharge, depending on the patient’s risk of readmission. C› Reconcile preadmission and postdischarge medications to identify discrepancies and possible interactions. BStrength of recommendation (SOR)
