Abstract
It is important to develop and implement policies that are unique to nursing practice situations. To do so, nurses must participate in policy development that connects disciplinary knowledge with policy formulation. The purpose of this paper is to explore connections between nursing knowledge and transitional care. This is done with a discussion of transitional care definitions and models, along with connections to concepts and principles within extant nursing theories and models.
