Causes of Readmissions and the Importance of Transitional Care in South Phoenix, Ahwatukee Foothills, Maricopa, Laveen, and the Surrounding Areas
Statistics show that about 20% of Medicare seniors return to the hospital within 30 of their initial discharge. Unfortunately, seniors have been less likely to recover fully, which leads to typically being readmitted to the hospital.
Doing whatever you could to prevent any complications leading to rehospitalizations would be best. Activities of daily living usually want senior seniors back to the hospital; drinking fluids, eating regularly, and sticking to medication schedules can be a lot for an individual who has experienced a severe injury.
When this becomes an issue, a professional Visiting Angels caregiver can step in to provide at-home care-- they ensure that your loved one is following any doctor’s orders to work towards a gentle recovery that should not result in any readmissions. Caregivers can also provide emotional support for your loved ones when they feel lonely.
