Being discharged from hospital is a positive step, but the transition from ward to home can be challenging. When your loved one has relied on twenty-four-hour nursing support, the idea of coping alone can be intimidating. This is especially true if they are feeling weak and vulnerable after an accident, illness or operation. Some supportive care can help make the change from hospital to home easier, so that they can concentrate on making a healthy recovery.

What are the options for post-discharge care at home?

Our team at St Georges healthcare can help you decide what care plan will be most appropriate for yourself or your loved one, whether that is temporary rehabilitation help or long-term hourly, nightly or live-in care. Our carers can help with domestic tasks, companionship, mobility assistance, personal care, hygiene and medication assistance. We can ensure that the care for your loved one will be tailored to suit the individual needs that they may have.
