·Advocate on behalf of patient/family/caregivers for access to services and for protecting the patient's health, well-being, safety, and rights.

·Identify clinical, psychosocial, historical, financial, cultural, and spiritual needs that guide the planning process with the patient to attain optimal outcomes.

·Complete detailed patient assessments to determine patients' capacity for self-care, identify support systems, outline barriers to discharge, and determine the likelihood that patients will require post-hospital services and the availability of those services.

·Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to coordinate an individualized, safe, efficient care plan. Integrate patients' goals, the health care team's assessment, risks, and available resources to develop and coordinate a successful transition plan.

·Serve as a liaison between patients and the care team. Incorporate discipline-specific recommendations, test results, and outstanding orders into the discharge plan and respond to the progression of discharge milestones.

·Maintain knowledge of resources in the area, their capabilities and capacities, and service providers available. Ensure appropriate arrangements for post-hospital care will be made before discharge and work to avoid unnecessary delays in discharge.

·Serve as a contact between hospitals and post-hospital care facilities and the physicians who provide care in both settings.
