**_The topic that was selected was; Can a nurse-led, transitional-care program, which uses a nurse-led, patient-focused, standardized education and early follow-up via telephone or telehealth, reduce 30-day hospital readmissions in adults with heart failure discharged from an acute-care hospital compared to usual post-discharge care? The secondary question is: Does nurse-led transitional care help adults to make more self-care and symptom-management behaviors after a heart failure hospitalization than usual care?_**

3. Resources required for implementation: stakeholders; assessment tools (questionnaires, surveys, pretests and posttests to assess knowledge of participants at baseline and after intervention); technology (technological or software needs); funds (cost of educating staff, printing or producing educational materials, gathering and analyzing data before, during, and following implementation); and staff to initiate, oversee, and evaluate change.
