Safe discharge from hospital to home
Is your family in hospital? Are you worrying about care problems after your family's discharge? Please allow our discharge planning service to assist you in solving your problem.
What is discharge planning?
"Discharge planning" is provided by the hospital professionals working with patients' families. By coordinating community resources, it is hoped that the discharge preparation work can be completed step by step during the hospitalization, and the patients can be smoothly transferred from the hospital to their discharge destination, so as to ensure that they can be discharged safely and receive sustained and complete care.
