One in five Medicare enrollees is readmitted to the hospital within 30 days, and up to 75% of these readmissions are preventable! Don’t let this happen to your loved ones. When a loved one is discharged from the hospital, the effects of their illness or injury don’t disappear once they return home. This often makes it difficult for someone trying to adjust back to daily life, increasing the risk of re-admission. You can help reduce the risk of rehospitalization of a loved one by coordinating the transition from the hospital or rehab facility to the home. Assisting Hands can help you or a loved one get back to your home in Oregon City safely. Utilizing in-home care is key for a successful recovery process.
General Hospital Discharge Plan
- Evaluation of the patient
- Discussion with the patient or their representative
- Planning for their return home
- Determining what aftercare or other support is needed
- Arranging for follow-up appointments or tests
