Transitional Care ensures the continuity of care when a patient moves from one care setting to another (e.g. from hospital or a nursing home to one's own home). You may need transitional care after a discharge from hospitalisation, or during home recovery after an operation. The initial setup and support from medical professionals will help you gain the necessary confidence and knowledge to provide care (or self-care) at home.
Depending on the complexity of the medical condition and the expected recuperation period, you may need different levels of support, ranging from renting hospital bed and other hospital equipment, to learning how to identify worsening symptoms, and performing simple nursing care procedures and other caregiving tasks.
At Ninkatec, we focus on having patients discharged to their homes smoothly, while ensuring care continuity and enhancement of quality of life. Before, during and after patient’s discharge, Ninkatec Team can follow up with patient and family with regards to management of care post discharge:
Transitional care is best arranged prior to the actual move. Check in with us early to start the planning process for a smooth experience.
