Abstract

Patient handoffs between health providers in the post-anesthesia care unit and receiving division can vary from written, telephone, or face-to-face. Nursing self-efficacy can be influenced by the type of handoff received from the PACU. Also, structured handoffs using the Five P's may influence self-efficacy levels of receiving nurses.
