Transitional Care
Extended hospital stays can have a significant impact on a senior’s physical and mental well-being. Prolonged hospitalization increases the risk of complications like infections, muscle atrophy, and functional decline. It can also lead to confusion, disorientation, and feelings of isolation, all of which can hinder recovery.
Unfortunately, hospital readmission shortly after discharge is a common issue for many seniors. The transition from hospital care to home care can be challenging, and without proper support, it can lead to setbacks in recovery. Effective discharge planning and ongoing assistance at home are crucial to reducing the risk of readmission and ensuring a smooth recovery process.
As your loved one transitions back to home, it’s important to manage discharge instructions, follow-up appointments, and daily care routines. Goshen Home Care can step in to offer the necessary support, providing a dedicated caregiver to assist with medication reminders, mobility support, meal preparation, and more. This professional help can make the recovery process smoother, allowing your loved one to heal in the comfort of their own home with the peace of mind that expert care is at hand.
Goshen Home Care has created a “Ready, Set, Go Home” transitional program to provide non-medical home care support after your senior leaves the hospital or a rehabilitation facility.
Our professional caregivers are here to help reduce your loved one’s risk of readmission due to preventable mishaps at home—and offer you peace of mind during their recovery.
