Winter is a wonderful time for cosy moments at home, and we believe that every transition from hospital to home should be a smooth, comfortable and uplifting experience.
At Nexus Care, we are here to make that happen for you and your loved ones!
With our friendly team by your side, we will ensure you have all the support you need to feel safe and well-cared for.
Here are our top tips to make your journey from hospital to home nothing short of positive.
Good preparation makes all the difference when it comes to a smooth transition.
Our team works closely with families, healthcare professionals and clients to create a personalised care plan that meets every need.
Whether it is a helping hand with daily tasks, medication management, or simply being there with a warm smile, planning with us means you are all set for success.
Hear from Piers, one of our clients: “When I ended up in hospital for a month I knew when I was discharged, that I would need additional help to get me back on my feet. I phoned Nexus Care Services on the Friday afternoon that I was coming out and that same evening they had carers in place to look after me – that’s how responsive they were.”
Getting ready for recovery after hospital admission is incredibly important, as it smooths out your move back home and helps speed up your return to normal life.
There’s nothing better than being home, especially in the winter months where comfort is key.
To make sure the home is as welcoming and safe as possible, our team is here to help assess and make recommendations, such as adding helpful grab rails or keeping the cosiest space warm and inviting.
A few small adjustments can make returning home even more enjoyable.
Taking the right medication at the right time is key to a great recovery.
Our experienced carers are always ready to assist with medication management, ensuring everything goes smoothly so you or your loved one can focus on feeling better.
Every transition is unique, and we understand that coming home from hospital can feel like a big step. Our compassionate team is here to support each client at their own pace.
With our friendly carers providing patient and understanding support, you can relax and enjoy the comforts of home while we take care of the rest.
Winter brings many cosy moments, and staying connected with loved ones makes it even better.
Our carers are here to provide support and also to bring joy and companionship through a friendly chat over a cup of tea.
After their hospital stay, if our clients are looking to get back into the swing of things, Nexus Events provides the perfect opportunity.
Whether it’s reconnecting with old friends, making new ones, or simply enjoying familiar or new places, Nexus Events offers a variety of engaging activities.
Alongside our Community Care services, Nexus Events ensures that everyone has the support they need to connect and step back into their community with confidence.
Staying connected and supported is at the heart of everything we do, and we’re here to make every day a positive one.
If you or a loved one are preparing for a return home from hospital, we are here to answer your questions, offer friendly advice, and provide all the support you need for a happy and successful transition.
