Transition Care
Get the After-Hospital Home Care You Deserve
After a stay at the hospital or a rehabilitation facility, the transition to home care is a critical time in a person’s recovery. In addition to ensuring the person’s safety in the home, the logistics of assisting the person around the house and running their errands can be a lot for many families to handle. That’s why countless families have turned to their local Homewatch CareGivers for reliable, compassionate Transition Care services.
What Is a Transition Care Program?
Transitional care covers the period when a person is leaving a hospital or another medical facility and going back home to finish their recovery. The services you should expect to receive from a good home care provider during that time include:
- A home visit before discharge to make sure the client can safely navigate through the house with their mobility devices.
- Coordinating discharge from the hospital or facility.
- Providing safe transportation back home.
- Reviewing post-discharge instructions with the care team, family members, and the client.
- Running errands, such as grocery shopping or picking up medications from the pharmacy.
- Scheduling further appointments with healthcare providers.
After-Hospital Home Care
Once the person has returned home, continued home care services may be necessary. Many people underestimate how much assistance they’ll need immediately after they return home. Family members may not be able to take extended breaks from their jobs or other obligations to provide sufficient support.
After-hospital home care and post-rehab care often include help with:
- Light housekeeping
- Meal preparation
- Medication reminders
- Mobility assistance
- Transportation to physical therapy sessions and follow-up appointments
Plus, home care technology such as Homewatch Connect TM can provide around-the-clock monitoring and constant access to a care specialist.
If your loved one is preparing for their transition to home care and could use immediate help, your local Homewatch CareGivers can start providing care before they leave the facility. Learn more about our care in facilities services.
