The below is a typical list from a Hospital of Discharge Planning items to consider upon being discharged from a Hospital or Skilled Nursing Facility.
Senior Solutions LA’s mission is to help you with these important considerations, decisions and implementation of the Plan.
DISCHARGE PLANNING:
We’re committed to helping you make a safe transition when you leave the Hospital or Skilled Nursing Facility.
Please think about:
- What is your plan for when you leave the Hospital/SNF?
- What is your Care Plan from the Hospital/SNF and Doctors?
- If you plan to return Home, how will you manage your care?
- What help will you have at home?
- Is your home HDCP/ADA compliant for your needs?
- What options do you have when you leave the Hospital/SNF?
The Case Manager/Social Worker will ask about your preferences, but choices may be limited based on your insurance/coverage, health conditions, financial capabilities, available family and friends’ aid.
