Post-discharge Support FAQs
Can we ask before discharge?
Yes. You can start with the expected discharge date and main care concern. The RN can then explain the next information needed.
Is a home assessment always needed?
It depends on the situation. Complex wounds, lines, major mobility changes, or an inexperienced caregiver may need a more detailed assessment.
