Patient handover is the pivot for communicating patients’ information between healthcare professionals. The current study explores the hypothetical frameworks advocating corporate communication and patient handover, covering their ontology and epistemology. Clinical handover is a direct transfer of information course the transmission of clinical outline, liability and accountability 'tween healthcare professionals to help patients’ continuity of care, joint awareness of patients’ environments and planned management. Several hypothetical frameworks support the stages of handover. According to social hypotheses and the frameworks proposed in the current study, dispassionate handovers are social constructions. Handovers’ conclusive truth and form are thus achieved through constant interpersonal interplays, sharing of meanings, and allocating collective knowledge inside healthcare teams. Hence, on account of handover complexity, the author considers how different specialists use social conventions to create information about patients sharable and comprehensible to each appendage of a team or other groups, and how areas of misunderstanding are always a challenge when social constructions and handovers happen.
