Specialized Hospital Transitional Care in Redding, CA

Seniors discharged from the hospital face the most significant risk of readmission during their first 30 days back home. At Visiting Angels® Redding, our Ready Set Go Home program, commonly referred to as transitional care in Redding, CA, provides seniors with the support they need to recover fully and avoid costly hospital readmissions. Our team is here to provide the guidance, support, and peace of mind you need during this time.

What Causes Hospital Readmissions and How to Improve Surgery Recovery at Home?

While a loved one is in the hospital, their focus is usually set on returning home. But in many cases, seniors and their loved ones are ill-prepared for the recovery period, which can lead to hospital readmission. Nearly 1 in 5 Medicare patients are readmitted within 30 days of discharge. Knowing the common causes of hospital readmission can reduce your loved one's risk and help ensure a successful recovery.

As a leading provider of surgery recovery at home, Visiting Angels Redding is familiar with the common causes of hospital readmissions. Some of these reasons include:

• Difficulty following new dietary restrictions
• Failure to follow discharge instructions correctly
• Exhaustion from overexertion
• Forgetting to take medication on time, or taking the incorrect dose
• Falls due to changes in mobility or the effects of prescribed medications
• Skipping follow-up appointments and therapies
• Neglecting to report new or worsening symptoms
