Hospital discharge is a critical point in a patient's recovery. Without the right support, patients may face challenges managing their conditions at home, which can increase the risk of returning to the hospital.
By providing ongoing clinical support after discharge, home health services help patients continue their recovery in a familiar environment while remaining connected to their healthcare team.
Aveanna Home Health has developed a strategic approach to reducing hospital readmissions through coordinated care, clinical support, and patient education delivered in the home setting.
Patient-Centered Care
Aveanna's goal is to provide the best possible clinical outcome while delivering compassionate, individualized care. Each patient's plan of care is tailored to support their specific needs and recovery goals.
Seamless Care Transitions
Successful recovery often begins with a smooth transition home. Aveanna liaisons work directly with patients, clinicians, and healthcare teams to coordinate care, communicate discharge plans, and support continuity of care.
Clinical Interventions
Home health services are based on a customized plan of care and may include:
- Skilled nursing
- Physical therapy
- Occupational therapy
- Speech therapy
- Home health aide services
These services help address medical needs, support functional improvement, and promote recovery at home.
Admissions Available Seven Days a Week
Timely access to care can be critical following hospital discharge. Aveanna is prepared to admit patients and begin services seven days a week, including weekends, helping minimize delays in care.
Patient Education
Patient education plays an important role in preventing avoidable hospital visits. Aveanna nurses provide education on:
- Disease and condition management
- Symptom monitoring
- Recognition of warning signs
- When to contact a healthcare provider or nurse
Helping patients better understand their health and treatment plans can support improved self-management and reduce the likelihood of hospitalization.
