The Journey to Recovery Through Our Home Health Care in Owensboro, KY 

Our home health care can ease your loved one’s transition from the hospital or rehabilitation facility back home

The period immediately following a hospital stay can be confusing for anyone. You have just been through a stressful ordeal, you have been given many directions and follow updates, you may still be under the effects of anesthesia, and you may still be recovering. 

Now imagine a senior who may or may not be returning to living on their own facing these difficulties while also dealing with the normal dilemmas of senior living. Is it any wonder then that many seniors end up as repeat visitors to a hospital because of overexertion, misunderstood directions, and forgotten appointments?

A family caregiver may try to help a recovering senior, but often these well-meaning family members find they are lacking the time or the training to provide sufficient care. This is when Comfort Keepers should be contacted to either support or fully provide elderly home health care through Transitional Care for your recovering loved one.

What is Transitional Care?

Transitional Care provides a safe way for seniors to bridge the gap between a hospital stay and a full return to their normal routine. The home health care that Transitional Care provides focuses on removing the burdens of daily tasks, such as cleaning, from the seniors so that they can rest and recover. Typical services provided through Transitional Care include:

• Creating and supporting a care plan to aid recovery.
• Assisting with housekeeping, meal preparation, and errands
• Transportation to and from follow up appointments
• Providing peace of mind to family and friends
• Communication with medical staff involved in the recovery process
• Ensuring medications are taken on time and in the proper quantity

The Comfort Keepers Difference
