Reducing Hospital Readmissions With Visiting Angels Central Coast Senior Care

At Visiting Angels Central Coast, we know the concerns that families have when a loved one is admitted to the hospital for an extended stay. While well-being is a major concern, home assistance must be considered. Senior care is one of the best options on the road to recovery and preventing readmission.

The risk of future readmission is exactly the reason we created our Ready-Set-Go-Home program, in which we work together with family members and health care professionals to ensure your loved one successfully recovers at home. Our senior care is, extremely supportive, non-medical care that will greatly reduce the risk of readmission.

How Visiting Angels Central Coast Reduces Readmissions

Our Ready-Set-Go-Home program provides senior care in three separate areas and helps us better meet the needs of recovering seniors, starting in the hospital and ending at home.

In The Hospital

It all starts in the hospital, where we provide assistance and guide you and your family throughout the discharge process. We do so by providing a guide with what to expect upon transitioning back home. Preparing the home for your loved one’s arrival is also an option, allowing you and your family to spend additional time with your loved one.

At Home

The toughest part about going back home is probably getting back into a daily routine. We can help by providing assistance with cooking, cleaning, using the bathroom, getting dressed, moving around, and many other common activities. The extra set of eyes and hands can prevent falls that could land your loved one back in the hospital.

One of the most helpful services offered through our senior care is getting your loved one to follow-up appointments. Because missing these appointments increase the risk of readmission, we will make sure your loved one remembers them and is there on time.

At Visiting Angels Central Coast

Our office also helps out by delivering equipment, medication, and food to your loved one’s home. They will also look out for signs that your loved one is at risk of readmission. Communication with you and your family will also provide valuable information and put your mind at ease.

If your loved one is returning home from a hospital stay soon, call us to get started with senior care.
