Project RED (Re-Engineered Discharge) Training Program


----------------

The Project RED (Re-Engineered Discharge) training program is designed to help hospitals re-engineer their discharge process. Using the study modules and supporting materials, hospitals will become familiar with Project RED’s processes and components, determine metrics for evaluating impact, and learn how to implement Project RED.

Introduction
The Project RED (Re-Engineered Discharge) intervention is a patient-centered, standardized approach to discharge planning. Initially developed through research conducted by Dr. Brian Jack of the Boston University Medical Center and funded by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), Project RED improves patient preparedness for self care and reduces preventable readmissions.

This training program is designed to help you implement Project RED program within your hospital. Using the study modules and supporting materials, you will:

•Become familiar with Project RED's processes and components.
•Determine metrics for evaluating the impact of the intervention.
•Learn how to implement Project RED.

Several strategies associated with successful performance improvement are included on these pages. Links to supplemental tools also are provided to help you design your project and re-design your discharge process.

Course Content
The education sessions are organized into four modules. Hospital teams should access the modules in sequential order and complete the assignments recommended at the end of each module before moving to the next module.
