"Visiting Angels helped my Sister-in-law so much during a time we needed Angels to intercede! We lived 5 hours away and couldn’t be with her like she required. Scott did his best to send her good care. We are thankful they were there for her and for their help for us took."

How Transitional Care in Irving Reduces Hospital Readmissions

Ready-Set-Go Home with Transitional Care

When a loved one is hospitalized, you have enough stress and worry on your plate as it is. You also shouldn't have to wonder about how they will manage to recover after they are discharged while living alone at home. By partnering with our professional transitional care providers in the Irving area, you can set your loved one up with high-quality support customized to their unique needs at this crucial point in their recovery.

At Visiting Angels^® Irving, we've seen first-hand what a huge difference transitional care can make for seniors. Our services help reduce their risk of rehospitalization, give them confidence about being able to continue aging in place, and relieve family caregivers of the heavy burden of worry they often carry. Thanks to our comprehensive Ready-Set-Go Home transitional care program, elderly adults in the Irving area don't have to go through the discharge and recovery process without a helping hand.

What Causes Readmissions Among Seniors?

The statistics for rehospitalization among elderly adults are shockingly high. With almost one in five Medicare beneficiaries experiencing a hospital readmission only a month after their discharge, it's obvious readmissions are a significant issue for seniors to contend with. What is especially worrying is that readmissions can cause seniors to lose their independence and diminish their chances of making a full recovery. 

For many elderly adults, a lack of support at home leads to otherwise avoidable complications and rehospitalizations. For example, older individuals who feel tired, weak, and limited in their mobility may not take the steps prescribed by their doctor for a successful recovery. Without support with everyday tasks like showering, grooming, cooking, and taking medications correctly, they could significantly hinder their chances of staying out of the hospital. 

How Transitional Care Helps Seniors in Irving

Our Ready-Set-Go Home transitional care program targets these issues and promotes seniors' well-being before the discharge is initiated, during the transition home, and in the weeks and months of recovery that follow. In addition to in-home care visits and services that support seniors with daily routines, we also offer in-hospital visits to assist families with planning and preparing for the discharge. This well-rounded approach to care covers the various areas in which seniors typically lack support when they are discharged from the hospital.
