Effective Hospital to Home Care Solutions in Havant
Learn how Home Instead facilitates smoother transitions from hospital to home, providing essential care and support for a safe and comfortable recovery at home.
In recent months, the NHS has faced formidable pressures, particularly at the local Queen Alexandra Hospital. A notable consequence of these strains is the increasing number of patients unable to leave the hospital due to insufficient care at home. This not only impacts their recovery and well-being but also exacerbates the demands on our healthcare system. However, there is a beacon of hope in this challenging scenario: Home Instead is stepping up to provide comprehensive hospital-to-home care services to local families ensuring patients get home safely and receive the care they need post-discharge.
At Home Instead Havant, we specialise in helping individuals transition smoothly from hospital care to the comfort of their own homes. Our local team is adept at crafting personalised care plans that cater to the specific needs of each individual. By offering this tailored support, we can play a pivotal role enabling patients to return to their homes and community with confidence.
Our approach is based on a simple yet powerful philosophy: enable independence and promote recovery in a familiar environment. We have observed heartwarming success stories where our intervention has made a tangible difference.
- For example, one of our clients had suffered a stroke and spent an extended period in rehabilitation. With our live-in care support, she regained her independence and we sat with her doing the prescribed rehab exercises daily. Her nephew recently shared that she has never looked better in seven years, a remarkable testament to the dedicated care provided by our team.
- In another instance, a lady who had to spend time in hospital and returned home under our watchful care just this week. We coordinated her discharge to avoid the pitfalls of an unsafe weekend discharge. We also have supported the subsequent follow-ups with medication reviews, getting the right equipment setup, and ensuring specialist district nursing support. This all takes time, careful thought and effort from our expert team and a new routine is now in place to support a successful transition back in her home setting.
Situations like these emphasise the importance of coordinated, compassionate care. And it’s not just about the immediate post-discharge period; we also focus on establishing sustainable care routines that ensure long-term success. That’s where our ability to offer home care at short notice becomes invaluable, as families often require swift assistance to manage unexpected hospital discharges.
