Reducing Hospital Readmissions
Specialized Care to Reduce Hospital Readmissions for Seniors
At Assisting Hands® Dana Point, we understand the importance of safe and successful recovery after a hospital stay. Seniors are at a high risk of readmission during the first few weeks after discharge, especially if they don’t have the proper support in place. Our caregivers provide specialized, non-medical home care services that are designed to bridge the gap between hospital care and home life, reducing the likelihood of hospital readmissions. With a focus on personalized care and safety, we help seniors recover comfortably in their own homes.
Overview of Post-Hospital Services
Our caregivers offer essential services that are critical in reducing the risk of hospital readmissions. These services include medication reminders, ensuring that prescribed medications are taken on time to avoid complications. We also assist with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, and meal preparation, which reduces the risk of falls or infections. For seniors recovering from surgeries or illnesses, our caregivers provide mobility support, help with physical exercises, and eliminate potential fall hazards in the home. Additionally, we assist with follow-up appointments, providing transportation and ensuring seniors attend necessary check-ups, helping to catch any health issues early.
Throughout the recovery process, our caregivers also offer valuable emotional and social support, providing companionship and encouragement to seniors who may feel isolated or anxious. This holistic approach ensures that seniors are not only physically recovering but also mentally and emotionally supported, which is key to a successful recovery.
Assisting Hands® Dana Point plays a vital role in preventing hospital readmissions by providing personalized non-medical post-hospital care. Our focus on medication management, daily living assistance, and emotional support helps seniors recover safely at home, reducing risks and improving their overall well-being. With our dedicated caregivers, families can have peace of mind knowing that their loved ones are in good hands during this crucial recovery period.
