Discharge Planning
How and when we plan a patients discharge from the Hospice
Discharge Planning commences at the patients first assessment. During their weekly attendance to Day Therapy, we will assess their needs and ensure measures are put in place to enable them to live comfortably at home. Day Therapy staff liaise closely with other professionals involved in the patient’s care e.g. GP’s, District Nurses, Macmillan Nurses, Social Workers etc to ensure patients and their families/carers are well supported and all their needs are met whilst at home. |
