According to a study published in the JAMA Internal Medicine Journal, 9% to 48% of all readmissions for people over the age of 65 are preventable. One factor that contributes to readmission, the study found, is the lack of post-discharge care.
“When a loved one is discharged from a hospital, their recovery isn’t necessarily complete once they return home. It’s often just beginning,” a Senior Helpers representative said.
To prevent readmission, the care provider understands that a well-planned and executed patient transition, post-rehabilitation, or hospitalization is essential. That is why Staying Home Safe begins with a detailed in-home assessment, a vital first step in creating a custom care plan for your loved one.
Its caregivers provide only the most appropriate assistance necessary for recovery, ranging from a few hours of care to round-the-clock assistance. They can help with activities of daily living, like meal preparation, diet adherence, and nutrition planning; plus, they can provide companionship, medication reminders and pickups, and transportation.
Furthermore, the team can liaise with everyone involved in your relative’s care, including physicians, nurses, and other professionals, to ensure efficient care delivery.
"Our customized in-home assessments take stock of what your loved one needs to successfully recover and build a care plan around their condition and goals," the representative said. “Readjusting to daily routines can be stressful and increases the risk of an avoidable readmission—which is what our Staying Home Safe program is designed to address."
