Abstract

The strong increase in pressure on the acute care network in recent years has occasionally given rise to temporary limitations in the accessibility. The question from the stakeholders is how to convert this more intensive collaboration into a sustainable and futureproof acute care network. The aim of this action research is to discover to what extent the collaboration in the acute care chain has been sustainably improved as a consequence of activities during the COVID-19 crisis.
