Care service
Home from hospital
A settled move home after a hospital stay, with the practical and personal support recovery needs.
A recovery that starts at home
Our home from hospital service is built around the recovery journey. Before discharge, our assessment team works out exactly what is needed and puts a plan in place, from transport to shopping, so the move home is smooth.
Once home, our carers help with daily living, guard against setbacks, and gently rebuild the confidence that an illness or injury can knock. We offer short term or longer term support depending on how recovery goes.
Plan it out
How much support for the first weeks?
Recovery often needs more help at first, then less. Set a starting point here and we will review it as things improve.
Plan a typical week
Which days would you like a visit?
About 6 hours a week
This suits hourly visits, booked around your routine.
