Samenvatting	The Care Transitions Measure (CTM-3) is a three-item patient-reported outcome instrument that assesses how well patients feel prepared for the transition from one care setting to another—for example, from hospital to home, from acute care to rehabilitation, or from hospital to primary care. Developed by Carla Parry and colleagues in 2008, the CTM-3 measures whether patients received adequate preparation for self-care, understood their care plan, and felt supported in managing their transition. The measure is widely used to evaluate care coordination and transition planning quality, and has become a standard metric in quality improvement and research on hospital discharge and continuity of care.	The Patient-Reported Communication Scale (PRCS) is a brief, validated instrument that measures patients' perceptions of clinician communication quality in healthcare encounters. Developed through meta-analytic research by Haskard Zolnierek and DiMatteo, the PRCS assesses key dimensions of effective patient-clinician communication: clarity of explanations, listening, showing respect and empathy, and addressing patient concerns. The scale is used to evaluate clinician communication competence, identify training needs, and correlate communication quality with patient adherence, satisfaction, and health outcomes.
