How soon after discharge can care start?

We can typically start care the same day as discharge. We recommend contacting us prior to discharge so we can coordinate with the hospital planner and have a caregiver ready when your loved one arrives home.

Do you provide transportation from the hospital?

Yes, our caregivers can meet your loved one at the hospital, assist with the discharge process, provide transportation home, and help them settle in safely.

Is hospital discharge care covered by Medicare?

Traditional Medicare covers skilled home health (like a visiting nurse or physical therapist), but it does not cover the continuous non-medical personal care and supervision we provide. Our services are private pay, though Long-Term Care Insurance or VA benefits may apply.
