Readiness for Discharge
Readiness for discharge will be assessed with the Discharge Readiness Scale. : The scale consists of 8 questions and 4 sub-dimensions as personal status, knowledge, coping, and expected support. The questions in the scale are assessed between '0=not ready' and '10=completely ready'. A total of 0-80 points can be obtained from the scale according to the answers given to the questions, and an increase in the score indicates that the level of readiness of the patients for discharge increases. In the scale dimension scores, a score of 7 and above is assessed as the patient is ready for discharge, and a score below 7 is assessed as not ready for discharge.

Nursing care satisfaction
Nursing care satisfaction will be assessed with the Nursing Care Satisfaction Scale. The 19 items in the scale are 5-point Likert type and aim to define patients' satisfaction with various aspects of nursing care. The scoring used to determine the degree of satisfaction includes the following statements: 1- Not at all satisfied, 2- Rarely satisfied, 3- Satisfied, 4- Very satisfied, 5- Completely satisfied. The scale has no cut-off point. The patient's satisfaction with nursing care is assessed with the scale as long as the patient stays in the patient's room. The score evaluation is made on a 0-100 score by adding the scores of all items on the scale and converting them to 100. It is reported that a total score of 100 indicates satisfaction with all aspects of nursing care. A high total score also indicates high patient satisfaction.
