Navigating care transitions: a process model of how doctors overcome organizational barriers and create awareness.

Hilligoss B, Vogus TJ. Med Care Res Rev. 2015;72:25-48.

Through observation and interviews with physicians and hospital leadership, the study identifies structural and cultural barriers to effective communication and reveals time-consuming workarounds that physicians utilized to ensure patient safety.
