Ready-Set-Go Home with Transitional Care Services
Life is filled with stressful events, one of them being an overnight or extended hospital stay. For seniors in particular, the stress of hospitalization can be extraordinarily difficult to cope with. This can often lead to the unfortunate likelihood of hospital readmission in the weeks following initial discharge. To reduce this likelihood as much as possible, it is crucial to have a well-formulated care plan in place when you or your loved one returns home.
Visiting Angels “Ready, Set, Go Home” transitional care program provides non-medical care that covers both physical and emotional needs. Before you or your loved one even leave the hospital, our expert caregivers meet with the care team to iron out medication schedules, coordinate follow-ups, and bring awareness to any physical limitations. Once home, our caregivers work with you to provide a completely personalized home care experience that aims to reduce the stress of this transition period as much as possible.

What is Transitional Care?
Transitional care encompasses a set of foundational care services that have been designed to aid in the transition back home. The first 30 days after a hospital stay has a high probability of readmission if care plans are not adhered to. Our in-home care services aim to serve as a bridge between quality care from hospital to home care. This makes sure that you as a patient are being properly taken care of according to the discharge and recovery instructions given by your doctor. By acknowledging these key needs, our transitional care services aid in the reduction of complications and readmission while you focus on your recovery.
Learn About the Benefits
