Transitional Home Care Solutions for Seniors in and Near Vienna, VA
The Ready-Set-Go Home program from Visiting Angels offers transitional home care solutions to help seniors adjust to living at home after a hospital stay. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, roughly twenty percent of discharged patients return to the hospital within thirty days. Elderly adults have a lower chance of recovery if they are re-hospitalized during this window. Therefore, reducing hospital readmissions is essential to maximize health benefits and minimize expenses. Visiting Angels of Vienna is committed to reducing hospital readmissions for seniors in Tysons, Vienna, Fairfax, Falls Church, and surrounding communities in Virginia through our Ready-Set-Go Home program.
