THE PINK BAND PROJECT: FACILITATING COMMUNICATION DURING ED TRANSFERS

The Pink Band Project is an Island Health initiative designed to facilitate communication and handover between health care staff during transitions between long-term and acute care (including Emergency Department visits, acute care admission, and return/discharge to the resident's LTC home). It aims to improve the ability of hospital staff to recognize LTC residents, in order to help staff make decisions about admission and discharge.
