Hospital discharge

After you are discharged

It is always a priority to discharge you to the best possible place to support your recovery. In most cases this will be to your own home.

The support you need may be from family or friends (unpaid carers), a service in the community such as Age Concern, or from services within 兔子先生. This could include providing some equipment, support from our Assistive Technology Team, or more practical support from care workers.

If it is decided you do need support from someone other than family or friends, or they may not be available to support you, a care worker will be able to support you with your:

  • recovery
  • personal care
  • meals

The support you need on discharge will be discussed with you while you are in hospital.
