Hospital to Home Services in Fairfax

After a stay at the hospital or other care facility, there’s nothing like returning to the comfort of home. A discharge from the hospital can seem like a welcome end to an injury or illness. But the transition to living at home can be daunting. It’s difficult to manage appointments, medications,and the routines of daily living such as grocery shopping and housework when all you want to do is rest and recuperate. That’s why we developed our RightTransitions® program.

Through our RightTransitions hospital to home care program, Right at Home Northern Virginia can help seniors and adults with disabilities get home safely and prevent further hospitalizations with regular visits by our trained caregivers. We’re here to make living at home easier, so you can save your energy for recovery.

How Can RightTransitions® Help With Your Hospital to Home Transition?

Right at Home Northern Virginia can make transitioning from the hospital to home easy. Your care team will communicate with your family and health care providers to notify them of any changes in condition. This is important so that any small change being experienced as you recover can be dealt with quickly to avoid any more serious complications.

When developing your personalized care plan, we take into account your unique situation and health concerns, including the plan of care you received upon discharge, when offering hospital to home care services such as:

"Sela is my parents’ caregiver. Sela provides companionship and has been amazingly helpful to both my parents. My mother has severe anxiety and paranoia issues which are challenging. Sela has a calm and soothing demeanor which helps placate my mother and makes her feel at ease. She really tries her best to make sure both my parents are satisfied. Craig has been happy to help with any and every inquiry I could possibly have. He has returned my calls promptly. He has also followed up to make sure that everything is operating smoothly. Communication is so important. I would also like to thank Karen and Mary. The whole team has been caring and responsive. Knowing our elderly (91 and 94 yrs) parents are well cared for gives us peace of mind."

"My experience with Right at Home was terrific! When my dad was nearing the end of his life, Right at Home provided expert, competent medical care to him and allowed family to provide comfort and emotional support. Their great service afforded family the time we needed to rejuvenate ourselves so we could continue focus on the love and support we could offer to our dad and be confident that his medical needs were met."

"I can not say enough about the care and concern shown by the Right at Home administrative staff. From the first phone call inquiring about hiring an aide for my 95yr old mother they listened, asked all the right questions, gave me full access to staff's emails and phone numbers, reviewed her long term care insurance plan, and even arranged a conference call with the long term care insurance to work through the details of coverage. They will bill the long term care directly so no paper work for me! They have been my mother's and my advocate from step one."
