Transitional Care Palm Coast, FL
Moving can be stressful for anyone. It is especially stressful for vulnerable seniors, whether it's transitioning into a nursing facility or home from a hospital or rehab. The hard truth is that some of these transitions can drastically affect a senior's health, both physically and mentally, and in some cases- permanently.
It's important to have help for loved ones as they make these transitions. Visiting Angels is licensed to refer qualified CNAs and HHAs who can assist with many aspects of moving, such as assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs). Most times, companionship from a personal caregiver is the most essential element in making loved ones feel secure in a new environment.

Transitional Care Helps When Moving to a New Facility
Caregivers referred by Visiting Angels can assist with personal care, bathing, dressing, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and much more. Caregivers can be a liaison between the client and their family who may not be present for the move. Caregivers can also be an important resource to those in the new environment to learn about their new resident or neighbor. Staff or residents are eager to know their likes, dislikes, routines, preferences, and behaviors in order to ensure a successful transition.
In-Home Transitional Care from Hospital or Rehab
Visiting Angels specializes in referring CNAs and HHAs to help anyone coming home from a facility such as a hospital or rehabilitation facility for any reason, including surgery recovery. When discharged from facilities, many people will experience fatigue, weakness, limited mobility, anxiety, and a general inability to perform ADLs like they once did. Caregivers can help with scheduling follow-up appointments, healthy meal planning and preparing, observing and reporting client conditions to their doctor or home health company, personal care, bathing, dressing, mobility, and transfers. Visiting Angels can refer caregivers to anyone aged 18 years or older.
Benefits of Getting Help With a Move
According to the Patient Safety Network, "A classic study found that nearly 20% of patients experience adverse events within 3 weeks of discharge, nearly three-quarters of which could have been prevented."
Private caregivers can observe behaviors, identify changes in bowel or bladder control, identify fall hazards, contact doctors or emergency contacts in case of a concern, offer medication reminders, and much more - all in an effort to prevent complications with transition or recovery.
Transitions prove to be a very sensitive and fragile event for seniors and their families. Private duty caregivers referred by Visiting Angels can make the most important impact for a successful transition.
