At the Limit in Son Espases: Operations on Standby — How the System Can Breathe Again

Answer

Why does discharge planning matter so much in Mallorca hospitals?

Discharge planning matters because a patient may be medically ready to leave, but still need rehab, transport or social support before going home safely. In Mallorca hospitals, delays in these next steps can keep beds occupied longer than necessary. Better coordination with GPs, physiotherapists and social workers can help patients leave sooner and more safely.
