Fort Collins, United States - February 1, 2024 /PressCable/ —

Senior Helpers has launched a transitional care service designed for elderly individuals moving back home after a stay at the hospital or a rehabilitation facility. Based on its Staying Home Safe approach to care, the program makes readjusting to one’s daily routine easier through a service that helps reduce the risk of readmission and ensures one can recuperate safely at home.

According to a study published in the JAMA Internal Medicine Journal, 9% to 48% of all readmissions for people over the age of 65 are preventable. One factor that contributes to readmission, the study found, is the lack of post-discharge care.

"Our customized in-home assessments take stock of what your loved one needs to successfully recover and build a care plan around their condition and goals," a Senior Helpers representative said.

The care provider notes that a well-planned and executed patient transition, post-rehabilitation, or hospitalization is essential to prevent readmission. As such, the Staying Home Safe approach begins with a detailed in-home assessment, a vital first step in creating a custom care plan for the client.

Its caregivers provide only the most appropriate assistance necessary for recovery, ranging from a few hours of care to round-the-clock assistance. They provide companionship, medication reminders and pickups, and transportation. In addition, they can help with activities of daily living, like meal preparation, diet adherence, and nutrition planning.

Furthermore, the team can liaise with everyone involved in the client’s care, including physicians, nurses, and other professionals, to ensure the efficient delivery of care. Learn more by visiting https://www.facebook.com/SeniorHelpersNoCo/

“When a loved one is discharged from a hospital, their recovery isn’t necessarily complete once they return home. It’s often just beginning,” the group's representative said. “Readjusting to daily routines can be stressful and increases the risk of an avoidable readmission—which is what the Staying Home Safe program is designed to address."

Senior Helpers provides, among other services, surgery assistance, respite care, and chronic disease care—all of which are tailored to help seniors age in place.
