Discharging from the hospital to return to the comfort of your home can be a great relief. For some patients, this transition period may require additional home care services. Below are a few considerations to ensure your recovery is as successful as possible.
Arranging In-Home Care
Preparing the Home
It is appropriate to evaluate the home setting prior to discharge. Family members or trusted loved ones can be a help during this time by making the necessary changes. Tasks may include stocking the refrigerator and pantry with foods and liquids needed for recovery. It is important to maintain safety by clearing pathways to the bedroom and bathroom areas. For suggestions on how to make your home suitable for recovery after hospital discharge, consult with an in-home care provider.

“I used Trinity for short-term post-surgery care after an abdominal hysterectomy. My initial contact, Paula, went WAY above and beyond the call of duty in driving out with her husband a couple days after my surgery to help me get my car home from the hospital. The flexibility to add/cancel scheduled time was especially helpful in my situation since I really had no way to know for sure what I would need.
I would definitely use Trinity again in a similar situation and wouldn’t have any reservations about recommending them to others.”
