ABSTRACT

The growing burden of chronic non-communicable diseases demands improved post-discharge care. The Sudanese healthcare system faces challenges in providing coordinated care for patients with chronic conditions after hospital discharge. This qualitative study explored the experiences of patients with chronic disease in transitional care from hospital to home to identify improvement targets. Purposive sampling was used to interview 17 participants from different hospitals in Khartoum, Sudan. Audio recordings were transcribed and analyzed using principles of content analysis to identify themes and the relationship between them. Thematic analysis revealed 4 main themes describing the perceived needs of the patients. These were (1) feeling well-informed about post-discharge care goals and plans; (2) feeling cared for during hospital admission and follow-up visits; (3) feeling safe during the transitional care process; and (4) having access to follow-up services. This study highlights the importance of improving hospital patient education through effective communication to facilitate care transitions.
