What results are anticipated from the completion of this trial?

"This 6 month study seeks to analyse the acceptability of social needs screening. Secondary outcomes are retention rate, measured as the proportion of caregivers recruited who responded to a post-hospitalization survey; social needs screening rate, determined by measuring how many families were screened for such necessities in hospital; and caregiver-care team relationships — this is assessed via De Marchis et al.'s (2019) Likert scale question: “How much do you trust your health care provider(s) at this hospital?” with responses ranging from 1 ("not at all") to 10 ("completely")."
