Hospital Transition Program
The Hospital Transition Program (HTP) helps facilitate fluid transitions from hospital discharge back to the community. Our program is rooted in best practices and research regarding comprehensive assessment of social determinants of health and related interventions.
The HTP initiative hinges on the notion that no singular healthcare or social service provider can fully meet the ever-growing demands of community health on its own. The best approach to providing comprehensive care to combat the complexity of challenges faced by West Virginians today is through strategic community collaboration.
