When Jackson, MI Residents Require Assistance With a Transition of Care, We Are Here to Help
When making a transition of care, such as a hospital admittance or discharge, addressing unique safety concerns is critical for long term health. Our caregivers are trained in every aspect of change-of-care scenarios and can identify potential risks and remove them altogether. With new care plans, there are always new dangers that need to be eliminated from a home. Of course, falls are a significant risk for seniors returning to the home, as new mobility limitations restrict and alter your senior's ability to get around safely. Our caregivers are specially trained to assess risk in the house and minimize its potential threat to your loved one's safety.
Hospital-to-Home Service Includes:
- An experienced, reliable caregiver who meets your loved one in the hospital room or discharge area
- Transportation home with stops for picking up prescriptions or groceries
- Help understanding and following discharge plans
- A debriefing phone call to the family (or doctor or health coach)
- Scheduling and attending follow up appointments
- Meal preparation
- Light housekeeping and laundry
- Identify trip hazards and make home safety recommendations
- Educate the client and family members on red flags or warning signs for chronic conditions
- Bathing, grooming, and personal hygiene
