New study aims to make hospital discharge safer for Non-English speakers

NCT ID NCT07032818

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether an extra phone call from a nurse after hospital discharge can help patients who speak Spanish, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Cape Verdean, or Vietnamese understand their care instructions better. About 60 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either standard discharge care or an additional educational call with translated written instructions. The goal is to see if this approach improves patient understanding and reduces problems after leaving the hospital.
