Hospital Discharge

Life can be turned upside down after an accident or injury. For injuries serious enough to require hospitalization, the effects are even more significant. Not only is the patient's life "derailed" by the injury, their family and friends are also affected. Rehabilitation in Motion provides assistance to patients and family when planning for discharge from hospital. We perform home assessments to evaluate safety and determine home support needs and equipment requirements. (i.e. bathing, sleeping, cooking etc). If necessary, arrangements for cleaning, meal preparation and transportation can be made.

Most individuals are anxious to get back to their homes in the most timely fashion possible. However, after injury or illness, one's ability to function within the home may be restricted. The struggle to regain independence in activities of daily living (ADLs) can be made easier if help is provided for a period of time. Rehabilitation in Motion can attend your home to discuss your needs and match these with community resources. A plan will be formulated and coordinated with your physician, the funder and various service providers, depending on your specific needs.
