Transitional Home Care

When your loved one is ready to transition from the hospital to home or to another post-acute care facility, transitional care services from Interim HealthCare can make it a smooth process with optimal outcomes.

What is Transitional Care?

If your loved one’s condition is stabilized or healed enough and hospital care (also known as acute care) is no longer needed, transitional care can help bridge the gap between the level of care they received in the hospital and self-management. Transitional home health care is recommended for a wide variety of conditions, including chronic illness, burns, and more, and has no restrictions on age. Proper transitional care is crucial to maintain progress and avoid rehospitalization.
