Validation of the Partners at Care Transitions Measure (PACT-M): assessing the quality and safety of care transitions for older people in the UK.

The PACT-M has shown evidence to suggest that it is a reliable measure to capture patients' perception of the quality of discharge arrangements and also on patients' ability to manage their care at home one month post discharge. PACT-M 1 is a marker of patient experience of transition and PACT-M 2 of coping at home.
