Up to 40% of hospitalised seniors are frail and most want to return home after discharge. Inaccurate estimation of risks in the hospital may lead to inadequate support at home. This study aimed to document convergences and divergences between risks and support needs identified before hospital discharge and perceived at home post-discharge.
