Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

At Comfort Care At Home, we understand that organising care for your loved one can feel overwhelming. Below, we share our expertise by answering frequently asked questions about hospital-to-home care.

What to do before being discharged from the hospital?

It’s crucial that your loved one’s mobility is assessed by a physiotherapist before they’re discharged, to ensure it’s safe and appropriate for them to return home.

If your loved one has poor mobility and cannot bear their own weight after a hospital stay, equipment may need to be installed at home before discharge. An occupational therapist may visit the home whilst your loved one is still in the hospital so they can assess the environment and ensure any adaptations or equipment is ordered and installed.

After discharge, they may qualify for up to six weeks of free reablement care funded by the government. Depending on their recovery, additional support from a homecare provider might be necessary.

What is an unsafe discharge?

An unsafe discharge occurs when a patient is sent home from the hospital without adequate support or preparation in place for their recovery. This could include a lack of follow-up medical care, failure to assess the patient’s home environment or insufficient planning for essential needs such as medication or mobility aids.

To avoid an unsafe discharge, it’s important to have a clear plan in place before leaving the hospital. Comfort Care At Home can work with you to ensure all necessary support is arranged, reducing the risk of complications or readmission for your loved one.

How do I arrange my own after hospital home care?
