The augmented intervention will consist of just-in-time nurse, patient and physician information and feedback during the post-acute period, plus transition to an ongoing Home-Based HTN Support Program within approximately 30 days after the patient's admission to home health care. The augmented intervention adds an HTN Nurse Specialist (advanced practice nurse) and a lay community health worker, who will be responsible for assuring a patient's smooth transition to the Home-Based HTN Support Program and for delivering the main components of that intervention, backed up by the project physician.
The basic information and referral intervention will deliver key "just-in-time" information to nurses, patients and patients' physicians while the patient is receiving post-acute home care services. The basic intervention relies on care provided by home health nurses during the routine home health stay.
