Patients' and Providers' Perspectives of the Transition of Care from Hospital to Community for Hispanic/Latino Adults with Diabetes.

Findings in this study provide a frame of reference that can be used to address challenges facing Hispanic/Latino patients with diabetes. The uniqueness of this study is its exploration of the perspectives of patients and healthcare providers and the overlapping themes that emerged. Additionally, timely outpatient follow-up care, education, and reducing communication discordance can help with lowering readmission rates for patients with diabetes, especially those who are medically disadvantaged and have language barriers.
