BackgroundReturning home after neurological hospitalization, rehabilitation, or specialist care transfers responsibility to patients, caregivers, and community services. We mapped mechanisms and gaps across dementia/Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple sclerosis (MS), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).MethodsFollowing JBI guidance and PRISMA-ScR, eligibility was derived using population-concept-context. We included empirical reports involving adults with a target condition, a post-discharge, return-home, rehabilitation, telehealth, caregiver, treatment, respiratory, or palliative continuity component, and post-transition patient, caregiver, service, safety, rehabilitation, equity, or implementation outcomes. Five databases were searched through to 11 May 2026. Two reviewers independently screened records; charting and classification were verified by R.S.C., A.C., and A.Q.ResultsOf 24,417 records, 69 reports were included: Dementia/ADRD, 28; PD, 10; MS, 9; and ALS, 22. Eighteen were core transition reports (26.1%), 14 return-home/community re-entry reports (20.3%), 16 adjacent continuity reports (23.2%), and 21 companion/secondary reports (30.4%). Dementia/ADRD provided discharge-anchored evidence; PD and MS mapped functional carry-over; ALS mapped adjacent respiratory, telehealth, and palliative continuity.ConclusionsThe main contribution is an operational cross-disease framework separating direct discharge, return-home, adjacent-continuity, and companion evidence while linking mechanisms to disease-specific pathways. This framework maps disease-specific functions, not comparative effectiveness. The proposed frameworks are author-derived and hypothesis-generating. Future studies should use explicit anchors, standardized outcomes, longer follow-up, and equity-sensitive implementation measures addressing caregiver workload, digital access, feasibility, and sustainability. They inform testable, context-sensitive intervention designs for future neurological transition-care research and practice.
