Abstract (ENG): A quantitative approach in the form of an online questionnaire was used to identify challenges and desires related to the Care Records Transmission Process and Care Transition Records (CTR). The questionnaire was sent to nurses, nursing assistants, and trainees working in ambulatory, acute inpatient, or long-term care settings. The survey revealed that creating CTRs is time-consuming, and the lack of standardization of CTRs makes the process even more cumbersome. In addition, most facilities transmit the CTR by physically handing it over to the patient or resident, resulting in little or no preparation time for the individual(s) receiving care. The key findings also suggest that most respondents are only partially satisfied with the completeness of the CTRs and that they must conduct additional interviews to obtain missing information. However, most respondents hoped that digital transmission of CTRs would lead to less administrative burden and that standardization of CTRs would be encouraged
