Our hospital discharge services help get clients safely home from a facility, easing back into daily routines as health conditions allow. In the Grand Rapids area, we are the hospital discharge experts, and can be there throughout the transition home, whether this is a four hour event or many days or weeks of assistance, as flexible as needed. Getting back home after a medical procedure, surgery, or illness, can be a challenging process, with heaps of paperwork, hospital discharge instructions, medication requirements and various follow up appointments. Family members are not always available for the hospital discharge meeting with nursing staff, doctors and case managers; we can be there as another set of eyes and ears to ensure nothing gets lost in translation.
In Grand Rapids, our caregivers are trained to encourage active recovery while promoting compliance with the prescribed hospital discharge plan. Our caregiver training and education programs continually broaden the skills and knowledge base of our care team so that the hospital discharge process and ongoing services exceed the needs of the families we proudly serve. Our holistic approach in developing the customized care plan considers emotional, physical, and social needs of our clients as they are interrelated and critical to overall wellbeing. The chances of being readmitted to a hospital after a procedure go down significantly with proper care and attention during the weeks following a hospital discharge.
After Rehabilitation Care
The care we
provide to those rehabilitating is customized to the individual’s
specific needs and wants, the discharge plan received at the hospital,
and is always sensitive to the diagnosis and condition of the client.
Our in home caregiver services help fill in the gaps between the skilled physical and occupational therapy
visits as well as skilled home health nursing visits to the home. Trained and compassionate caregivers offer
safety, companionship and peace of mind that the client is eating and
hydrating well, maintaining good hygiene, staying connected to others,
and taking medications appropriately.
