Abstract

The return back home of certain patients treated for cancer in the palliative phase requires efficient coordination of caregivers in order to guarantee the well-being of patients and the quality and safety of the care provided. Two hospital coordination nurses have developed a quality approach that aims to reinforce the security of technical care at home in a perfect coordination of all the city-hospital contributors.

Keywords: coordination nurse; hospitalisation à domicile; hospitalization at home; infirmier de coordination; quality and securing of care; qualité et sécurisation des soins.
