Many older adults need substantial assistance getting back on their feet after being discharged from the hospital, which increases the probability of readmission. However, due to other obligations, family caregivers may not always be available to provide such comprehensive care. The Ready-Set-Go Home program, run by Visiting Angels of Fresno, offers transitional care services that would be useful in this particular situation. By having Visiting Angels assist, seniors can get the care they need to avoid readmission to the hospital, and family members can have peace of mind that they are recovering safely at home.

Transitional Care Can Make All The Difference For Aging Adults in Fresno, CA, and The Nearby Areas

According to Medicare, 25% of patients are readmitted to the hospital within 30 days of discharge. There are various reasons why older individuals may require readmission, such as inadequate home care, difficulties navigating the healing process, or failure to follow the doctor's post-discharge instructions.

Factors such as extreme pain, severe fatigue, or failure to take medications as prescribed make it more challenging for older people to follow their doctor's orders once they leave the hospital. Seniors may also have trouble with their everyday tasks and routines, as well as transportation to follow-up appointments. This is where transitional care from Visiting Angels of Fresno could be of assistance.

Our Ready-Set-Go Home program assists seniors in Fresno and the neighboring regions in getting back on their feet after a hospital stay. This one-of-a-kind program uses a three-pronged approach to transitional care services to boost patients' chances of making a full recovery and cut down on readmissions.

How Our Ready-Set-Go Home Program Works

Stage 1: To kick off the Ready-Set-Go Home program, we meet with family members and caregivers in the hospital to go over the discharge process and ways we may assist your loved one in returning home.

Stage 2: Helping clients with housework (such as cooking and cleaning) is the focus of the second phase. Resting and focusing on recovery increases the likelihood that our elderly patients will follow their physicians' post-discharge advice.

Stage 3: Stage three entails keeping a close watch on clients, resolving issues as they emerge, and coordinating the distribution of food and medication. Our clients may be certain that they will get first-rate transitional care services throughout their recovery since our care plans are flexible and will accommodate their individual requirements.
