Transitional Care in Fernandina: What You Need to Know

When you have an elderly parent or family member who is hospitalized, there is much to consider in regards to their care. While your loved one is in the hospital there are doctors, nurses, and an array of professional staff looking out for their well-being and helping them to heal. Once your loved one returns home from the hospital, the amount of support they receive often decreases drastically. Therefore, it is no surprise the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services report roughly 1 in 5 Medicare recipients will be readmitted to the hospital within the first month after discharge. This is not only costly, but extremely disheartening for seniors and their loved ones. For families throughout Fernandina, Amelia Island, and Orange Park, transitional care from Visiting Angels® Jacksonville FL can help.
