Discharge planning is a form of nurse behavior in nursing service. Often encountered discharge planning is only given when the patient will return from the hospital. The purpose of this research is to develop integrated discharge planning model. The research was conducted through 2 stages, the first step was descriptive observational research with survey approach which aimed at the development of integrated discharge planning model through inductive deductive thinking, that is by studying related literature, study of Standard Operating Procedure, and survey of discharge planning implementation. The second phase of research, piloted the development of an integrated discharge planning model. Sampling in the first stage of research using proportional random sampling while in the second phase of research using simple random sampling. The data in the first stage of the study were analyzed descriptively. The data in the second phase study were analyzed using Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test with significance level α ≤ 0.05. The results of the first stage showed that the implementation of discharge planning was carried out at an important stage only. The second stage of research with statistical test of Wilcoon Signed Rank Test proves that integrated discharge planning model has significant influence on nurse ability in discharge planning (p = 0,004; α ≤ 0,05). The existence of integrated discharge planning model development causes the implementation of discharge planning to be implemented properly, especially at the stage which is often neglected by the nurse. The development of discharge planning model can be done further research about continuous discharge planning on referrals of other health services and home care.
