Support after hospital discharge
Leaving hospital can involve several practical arrangements at once. Planning support early can help reduce stress, but discharge advice should come from the hospital team and relevant health professionals.
Useful next steps
Ask what support is needed at home, when it must start, whether there are equipment or nursing requirements, who to contact if circumstances change, and what information a provider needs before services begin.

Once immediate needs are addressed, Care4AU can help you compare providers for ongoing disability, aged-care, allied-health and home support.
