We found one third of eIDDs were missing details of the discharging doctor. Against these standards, we analysed the quality of electronic inpatient discharge documentation (eIDD) sent over two months from OUH Trust. With a multidisciplinary team approach, we developed a list of "golden rules" for good discharge communication. Poor quality discharge summaries increase the risk of adverse events and rehospitalisation. Foundation year doctors (FYDs) write most hospital discharge communication, although they have minimal training in this skill.
