Who this guide is for

This page is for families who feel overwhelmed after discharge, seniors who need help at home, discharge planners looking for a community support contact, and caregivers trying to prevent avoidable gaps in care.

How All Seniors Foundation may help

A navigator can help the family read the situation in plain language: what follow-up is needed, whether the home is ready, what supplies or equipment are missing, whether transportation is a barrier, and whether placement or in-home support should be discussed. The goal is not to replace the discharge team, but to help the family take practical next steps.

What to have ready before calling

  • Discharge paperwork and follow-up instructions
  • Medication list if available
  • Home address and caregiver contact
  • Mobility and fall-risk concerns
  • Any missing equipment or supply needs
