How Transitional Care in Sparta Township Reduces Hospital Readmissions

Ready-Set-Go Home with Transitional Care

If a loved one is in their golden years, it can be especially worrying to hear they are in the hospital due to an injury or illness. You may realize that even when they are discharged, they will have a long road to recovery. Transitional care can help them get on their way to regaining their independence and avoiding a hospital readmission. The Ready-Set-Go transitional care program from Visiting Angels® Sparta Township is an excellent option for elderly adults who may need a helping hand following a hospital stay. 

Understanding the Causes of Readmissions in Sparta Township

Hospital readmissions are unfortunately very common among adults 60 and older. In fact, Medicare has reported that nearly 20% of beneficiaries return to the hospital 30 or fewer days after their discharge. This cycle can be costly and exhausting; it can also lower seniors' quality of life and lead to a loss of independence that makes aging in place less of a reality.

Some complications that lead to hospital readmissions are preventable. For example, when seniors are exhausted after a hospital stay, they may not have the energy to cook healthy meals or manage their personal care routines. They may also deal with mobility limitations that make it difficult to get around the house safely, putting them at risk for further injury and strain. Having a helping hand can make a huge difference in preventing complications and promoting elderly adults' recovery process.

How Our Ready-Set-Go Home Transitional Care Program Helps

Our transitional care providers take a three-prong approach to care through our Ready-Set-Go Home program. First, they meet with elderly adults and their families at the hospital. By playing a role in the senior's care before they return home to the Sparta Township area, our care providers can ensure they know exactly the forms of support the senior will require. In addition, our team members can help families plan for the discharge process.

When seniors finally have the chance to get back to normal life at home, our caregivers are ready to assist them with their daily routines and the implementation of their doctors' instructions. Additionally, our office staff work behind the scenes to provide comprehensive support that truly makes a difference in seniors' ability to avoid hospital readmissions.
