After a hospitalization, in-home medical assistance may be necessary
A patient returning home from the hospital is particularly vulnerable, especially during the first few days. Our rehabilitation and recovery services are designed to ensure that the return home is well-supervised and secure.
When seniors get out of the hospital, they’re often faced with new challenges during their convalescence. Changes in their routine, new medications, a new diet, new exercises and new guidelines are often on the menu. These changes can be overwhelming for them, especially when they’re still in a vulnerable position.
Most of the time, the family takes responsibility for helping their loved one during the transition. Their intentions are good, but in some cases, they quickly discover that the physical and emotional demands are very exacting. Furthermore, certain cases require mastery of specific healthcare knowledge. These are skills that can’t be improvised.
Our professionals can arrange transportation for the return home and support you during the adaptation period. In-home nursing assistants can provide supervision, medical assistance and the emotional support that is necessary to ensure a speedy recovery.
