When an elderly loved one is hospitalized it can be very stressful. Your loved one may be scared and in pain. Family members often take off work to be with their hospitalized loved one. Hospital stays are costly and often put a financial strain on seniors or their families. It is no wonder families look forward to their loved one's discharge. Unfortunately, your loved one is not automatically in the clear once they are discharged from the hospital. Approximately 1 in 5 Medicare recipients will be re-admitted to the hospital within the first 30 days. Thankfully, Visiting Angels® Clearwater can help. Our referrals for essential personal transitional care can assist your loved one upon discharge, enabling them to continue their recovery at home.
One of the top reasons why hospital readmissions occur is because of an inability to follow discharge instructions. Seniors may have trouble taking medications properly, meaning at the right times or in the correct doses. Elderly patients may have issues with follow-up appointments and therapies.

Ready-Set-Go-Home care, or transitional care, referrals from Visiting Angels Clearwater can assist your loved one in these areas and help them avoid the additional expense of hospital readmission.
