At Affinity Health, we understand the urgency and importance of smooth transitions from hospital to home. Discharge planning is complex — balancing patient safety, family readiness, and the need for efficient bed flow. That’s why we offer Transitional Care services delivered within 4 hours to hospitals and healthcare providers across Ontario.
Our goal is simple: to help you discharge patients safely and confidently, knowing they’ll have immediate support at home.
Why Transitional Care Matters
Every moment counts when patients are ready for discharge. Without the right support, patients face higher risks of complications, readmissions, or caregiver burnout. Transitional care acts as the essential bridge between hospital care and full recovery at home.
Key benefits of effective transitional care include:
- Reducing avoidable hospital readmissions
- Improving patient outcomes and satisfaction
- Ensuring medication compliance and mobility support
- Easing the pressure on families during a critical adjustment period
- Supporting hospitals with efficient patient flow and bed management
Our Promise: Care Within 4 Hours
Affinity Health’s Transitional Care program is built for speed, safety, and compassion.
When you refer a patient, we guarantee:
- Home care services delivered within 4 hours of discharge
- A personalized care plan tailored to the patient’s immediate needs
- Coordination with hospital staff to ensure a seamless transition
- Ongoing communication to monitor patient progress and adjust care if needed
Whether your patient requires personal care, medication support, mobility assistance, or caregiver relief, our team is ready to step in — fast.
