How can our Hospital Discharge Care in the home help?

Hospital discharge care in the home can provide a bridge between a hospital stay and home that supports patient recovery. There are a number of benefits of hospital discharge care to both the patient and their family, including;

  • Continuity of care

Hospital discharge care in the home ensures continuity of care by extending professional healthcare services to your living environment. This helps in closely monitoring the patient's health, managing any ongoing treatments, and swiftly addressing potential complications after a hospital stay or surgery.

  • Personalised care

All of our homecare plans are tailored to meet the specific needs of each client, taking into account their medical history, the nature of their illness or surgery, and their recovery goals. This personalised approach can significantly enhance the effectiveness of care.

  • Convenience and comfort

Recovering in your own home can be more comfortable and less stressful than staying in a hospital. You can be surrounded by your belongings and can recuperate in a familiar setting, potentially helping to speed up the recovery process.

What are the benefits of Hospital Discharge Care at home?

Reduced readmission potential

Our post-operative and hospital care at home services can lower the risk of complications and, consequently, the likelihood of readmission to the hospital.

Improved quality of life

Our clients can enjoy a higher quality of life during recovery. They can enjoy the presence of family and friends, stick to their routines as much as possible, and feel more in control of their healing process
