How Transitional Care Benefits Seniors in Sunnyvale, CA and Surrounding Areas

Considering the fact that almost 20 percent of seniors on Medicare return to the hospital within thirty days of being discharged, transitional care is significant for this age group. In many cases, readmissions occur because seniors lack the energy or mobility to comply with their doctor’s instructions. As a result, their overall physical well-being declines, and they must go back to the hospital.

A transitional care provider from Visiting Angels Sunnyvale can help prevent this by ensuring the care recipient is prepared for the discharge and has access to high-quality in-home care. Our caregivers can offer assistance with essential aspects of daily living, such as cooking healthy meals, walking, and bathing, as well as help with remembering medication schedules and attending follow-up appointments.

How Visiting Angels Sunnyvale Helps Local Seniors

Since 2003, we've aimed to initiate the transitional care process while care recipients remain in the hospital or rehab. That way, they can ask their physicians important questions and coordinate care for their return home. We provide each care recipient with a Ready-Set-Go Home discharge planning guide in which they can record important information they receive from their healthcare providers. They can also use this guide to identify areas where they may require the most assistance.

Our caregivers visit elderly adults in the hospital and assist with creating a plan for the upcoming transition. Then, we move on to providing personalized in-home care services that promote a full recovery. As monitoring is an integral part of this process, the staff members at our local care agency work behind the scenes to identify high-risk clients.
