Hospital Discharge Care
A solution to hospital discharge planning processes

Sometimes your hospital discharge plan requires that you have temporary support while you settle at home. Our trained Care staff and Nurses will offer the comfort and support that you need to regain your independence within your home. Taking on our home care services will also reduce the time you spend in hospital.

Our hospital discharge care is also a solution to NHS Hospital Managers. For example, our Live In Care service – a “direct alternative” to a Care Home will avoid keeping a medical fit person remaining in hospital while appropriate care is being sourced.

In this case the live in care as opposed to a Care Home will offer more benefits:

It ensures continuity of hospital care in the familiar home environment
It reduces chances of hospital acquired infections associated with delayed hospital discharges
• It opens the much-needed hospital bed spaces occupied by a “medical fit” patient
It is a solution to avoid hospital admissions especially of elderly patients who live alone and cannot cope
The service offers a solution to eliminating multiple patient transfer between services, e.g. home via care home or via a community hospital while a suitable care package is required or some rehab to regain confidence in your home

FACT: On a weekly basis our Live in care service is More Cost Effective than the cost of an NHS hospital bed!
