Hospital Discharge

Returning home after being in the hospital is always an exciting time, but it can also involve worries and questions about what life will be like once you’re home again. The caring healthcare professionals at Affinity Health will help you address your questions and concerns, by offering help and support for individuals and families through the transition back into life at home after leaving the hospital.

We always start with a free consultation with one of our nurses, and this can be done right in your hospital room. We will book a time that is convenient for you and will coordinate other healthcare professionals to join the meeting as needed (i.e. your specialist or hospital staff).  All aspects of your transition home will be discussed to ensure there are no surprises.

We can take on tasks such as ordering and collecting medications, setting up doctor’s appointments, managing at-home recovery, coordinating transportation and other relevant tasks.  Our Case Managers can also provide advice and support as you determine what services you will require upon returning home.

Our Hospital Discharge Service applies to people of all ages and includes the following:

• Case Management Services including in-hospital assessment by an experienced Nurse Case Manager
• Visit to your home prior to discharge to ensure your home is properly prepared
• Attendance at discharge planning meeting

Let us help you take the worry out of your transition from the hospital. 
There are no contracts, so you can use our services only as much as you need.
