Abstract
The Department of Patient Services and Discharge Planning is an efficient, well-integrated, cost-effective group of clinical programs that has merged behind the common goal of high-quality patent care. So much is read about the bickering between the disciplines and the issues related to turf; however, this department has been able to transcend to another level where the patient becomes the focus and patient-centered, patient-valued care becomes the mission.
