Patients face new medications, wound care needs, therapy requirements, and activity restrictions — all while adjusting to being back home. Our post-hospital care program provides skilled nursing, therapy, and care coordination to ensure a safe transition, prevent complications, and reduce the risk of hospital readmission. #### Who It Helps Post-hospital care benefits patients discharged after surgery, heart attack, stroke, pneumonia, hip fracture, joint replacement, or any hospitalization that requires ongoing skilled care and monitoring at home. #### What to Expect Within 24-48 hours of discharge, our care team will visit your home to review discharge instructions, reconcile medications, assess your condition, and develop a care plan. Ongoing visits will include skilled nursing, therapy, wound care, and education to support your recovery. ### Care Coordination We coordinate directly with your hospital discharge team, primary care physician, and specialists to ensure nothing falls through the cracks during the transition from hospital to home. #### When to Call If you or a loved one is being discharged from the hospital and needs skilled care at home, call us at (385) 287-1311. We can often begin care within 24-48 hours of referral. ### Frequently Asked Questions How soon after discharge can home health start? Does post-hospital care prevent readmissions? What if I need help arranging post-hospital care? Is post-hospital home health covered by Medicare? #### Get Started Call us for a free consultation to learn if this service is right for your situation.
