Our Live-In Home from Hospital Support Service can provide an essential service, when you need it most.
Current pressures on the NHS mean many people are discharged from hospital too early and return home without the appropriate care arrangements in place.
For a long time convalescent homes provided the in-between care, enabling patients to recover properly before going home to resume their lives. The transition period between a stay in hospital and returning home from hospital would help build up independence, aid recuperation and enable care staff to monitor the recovery process. The patient would return home safely and confidently after one or two weeks.
Sadly, convalescent homes have now almost disappeared and the consequence is the increasing trend for hospital re-admissions. National statistics show, especially where older patients are concerned, that re-admission figures are high with many having to return to hospital within a month.
Able Community Care can provide convalescent care at home through our Live-in Home from Hospital Support Service. Upon leaving the hospital, we will provide a live-in Support service to help convalescence, recovery and rehabilitation with the purpose of getting back to a normal level of independence.
