Post Hospital Illness & Recovery Care

---

After a planned or unanticipated hospitalization, an adequate discharge plan is essential to assure recovery and minimize the risk of  re-hospitalization. Most hospitals have social workers who work with you
at discharge to ensure the necessary transition support and services are in place prior to leaving the hospital.
Integrated Care Consultants can help you review the options and advocate for your best outcomes.

Choices may include:

• Nursing facilities for Skilled Care  (Medicare Part A benefit)
• Rehabilitation Centers   (Medicare Part A benefit)
• Going home
  • Home Health therapy services; physical, occupational and speech therapies  (Medicare benefit)
  • In-home care services (Private pay or Medicaid service)
     

Integrated Care Consultants will assist with a comprehensive review of the options facing families who are at this stage and will result in achieving the most effective plan for the best use of available resources.
