“…The system level limitations commonly observed in transitional care are exacerbated in underserved and minority populations who face a host of challenges as a consequence of their exposure to adverse social determinants of health, which include poor environmental, social, and economic conditions combined with the effects of structural racism, discrimination, and disadvantage. 51 The particular characteristics of medically underserved populations will vary between different countries and regions, 52 but can include racial and ethnic minorities, 53,54 indigenous populations, 55 immigrants (especially nonnative language speakers), 56 those with low-income, poor housing, or homelessness. 57 In the United States, underserved patients are common, comprising an estimated 30% of all hospital discharges.…”

In many countries hospital length of stay after an acute stroke admission is typically just a few days, therefore, most of a person’s recovery from stroke occurs in the community. Care transitions, which occur when there is a change in, or handoff between 2 different care settings or providers, represent an especially vulnerable period for patients and caregivers. For some patients with stroke the return home is associated with substantial practical, psychosocial, and health-related challenges leading to substantial burden for the individual and caregiver. Underserved and minority populations, because of their exposure to poor environmental, social, and economic conditions, as well as structural racism and discrimination, are especially vulnerable to the problems of complicated care transitions which in turn, can negatively impact stroke recovery. Overall, there remain significant unanswered questions about how to promote optimal recovery in the post-acute care period, particularly for those from underserved communities. Evidence is limited on how best to support patients after they have returned home where they are required to navigate the chronic stages of stroke with little direct support from health professionals.
