The recovery time for elderly patients who have undergone medical procedures or who have been treated for illness can be long and painful. At Home Care Assistance, we know that sometimes patients need a little extra help when healing, which is why we offer post hospital care to seniors in Palm Harbor, Clearwater, Belleair, and Safety Harbor.
Receiving the right post hospital care is important for all senior patients in the Palm Harbor, Clearwater, Belleair, and Safety Harbor areas because statistically, 35% of seniors are readmitted only 90 days after being discharged. This rate reflects many seniors who simply are unable to adhere to medical recommendations or instructions because they either do not understand or do not possess the physical capabilities to do so. Additionally, many patients have not adapted their homes or their loved ones’ homes to accommodate them during a recovery period.
If you have an elderly parent or loved one who has recently received extensive medical treatment, Home Care Assistance can help promote a speedier recovery right from the patient’s Palm Harbor, Clearwater, Belleair, or Safety Harbor home to prevent readmission. Our tailored assistance plans will meet the needs of individual patients because we not only listen to their concerns, but also adhere to physician instructions.
Home Care Assistance of Palm Harbor, Clearwater, Belleair, and Safety Harbor offers hourly or as-needed services, and even live-in home assistance, in order to accommodate whatever level of attention is required for the elderly patient. Our services aim to promote a faster recovery period and to reduce readmission rates for seniors in the area.
