Easing the transition back to home life
At HomeWell, we believe life happens at home. The everyday routine, combined with a greater sense of comfort and familiarity, provides a much-needed return to normalcy after inpatient care. For those recovering from surgery or after an extended hospital or rehabilitation stay, their return home is a pivotal point in their care journeys. However, this return is often a milestone marker, not the finish line.
After experiencing the increased level of attention, assistance, and support in a hospital or facility setting, the transition back to independent life at home can be challenging. A home without proper support can lead to relapses, as studies have shown that many seniors require rehospitalization shortly after discharge due to inadequate care and the continuation of unhealthy lifestyles.
Our role in transitional care
The good news is that no one has to endure this transition alone. Our agencies offer tapered services that can be the perfect bridge between the hospital and regaining your independent life at home.
HomeWell’s transitional care services can include:
- Bathing assistance
- Help with ambulation
- Medicine reminders
- Light housekeeping
- Picking up prescriptions
- Daily grooming
- Pantry refresh and grocery shopping
- Nutritious meal preparation
- Pet assistance
- And more, depending on the level of care needed
