Reducing Hospital Readmission With Visiting Angels At Home Caregivers In Powder Springs, GA
At Visiting Angels Powder Springs, we are aware of the worries that family members have when a loved one is in the hospital. They are not only worried about how he or she is doing now, but about how they will be cared for after their hospital stay. Our at home caregivers are one of the many options available that can help reduce the likelihood of hospital readmission.
Through our Ready-Set-Go Home program, we work with families and our caregivers to ensure that the transition back home is a success. The care we provide lends support and helps to reduce the risk of readmission.
How Visiting Angels Powder Springs Reduces Readmission
How do we help reduce readmission? By providing care and support in the hospital, at home, and at the Visiting Angels Powder Springs office that will aid in the recovery of your loved one.
In the Hospital
Not only do we provide care during your loved one’s hospital stay, but we help you through the discharge process as well. Understanding how we will help your loved one recover at home is important, which is why we offer a guide to help you plan for it. This guide raises questions that you may want to ask our at home caregivers. We can also get your loved one’s home ready for you to save you time.
At Home
Performing daily activities again can be the most stressful thing for your loved one, so we provide assistance with these activities to relieve some of that stress. This can include laundry, meal prep, bathing, getting dressed, using the bathroom, or getting around the house. This extra eye on your loved one also helps avoid falls and other physical injury risks.
Visiting Angels Powder Springs caregivers can also take your loved one to follow up appointments. Missing these can increase the likelihood of readmission, so we will make sure to remind your loved one and get him or her there on time.
At Your Local Office
We can coordinate the delivery of necessary medication or equipment to your loved one’s home. We will also stay in communication with you and other family members to stay updated on your loved one’s status and provide any information you may need.
