Transitions of Care Services in NW Pittsburgh, PA
One time, Short Term, and Long Term Care
Sometimes patients and their families need help getting home from the hospital or rehabilitation facility. Sometimes it is just one time, or on occasion. Life is not always predictable. In the case of an early hospital discharge, or emergency surgery, family members cannot always be there for their loved one.
Sometimes families don't live in the same city or state. There are so many times that ComForCare can help!
When called on, we are able to coordinate pick up with a discharge planner, social worker, or the nursing staff at a hospital or rehab facility. Our caregivers will follow the patient-specific plan for at home care, pick up prescriptions, and get your loved one comfortably settled.
We offer a team approach that includes:
- Our Nursing Staff
- Professional Caregivers
- Scheduling
- Coordination and Communication with Family
One-Time Care
We can assist one time, or occasionally as needed. For example, we can assist in transferring your loved one from a medical facility to an assisted living community or to their home. Working as a team, we can ensure adherence to the discharge plan while keeping the client comfortable, thus reducing or eliminating the need for readmission.
Short-Term Care
Continuing to monitor care after release from a facility is crucial for a full recovery. ComForCare is able to help clients who require extra supervision and assistance after a hospital discharge, including around-the-clock care if needed. With hospital-to-home transition care, our caregivers provide transportation, assist with meal preparation, help run errands, follow discharge plans from medical facilities, set medication reminders, help with light housekeeping and more.
Long-Term Care
We understand that sometimes the reason for a lengthy hospital stay is due to something that affects the individual’s ability to perform daily activities during recovery. In this situation, ComForCare can develop an extended care plan, including around-the-clock care, to help meet your loved one’s needs so they can return home sooner and recover at home. We always monitor and update care plans as necessary. Our team stays in constant communication with you and your family to decide which care options are in the best interest for your loved one.
