A critical moment in the care pathway
Returning home after hospitalization is a delicate process, especially for older adults. This transitional period can be a source of anxiety for both the individual and those around them. Fatigue, temporary or persistent loss of autonomy, the need for care or daily assistance… the challenges are numerous. If poorly prepared, this return can lead to complications or even re-hospitalization.
At A Domicile Monaco, we know how sensitive this period is: our role is to support each beneficiary and their family so that this return takes place in the best possible conditions.
An increased risk of loss of autonomy
Studies show that older adults are at significant risk of losing their independence during a hospital stay.
Up to 60 times the risk of developing functional disabilities has been observed, and nearly one in six elderly patients leave the hospital with an increased level of dependency.
This fragility requires special vigilance upon returning home, where A Domicile Monaco intervenes to prevent any disruption in support.
Anticipate discharge from hospitalization
The key to a successful return lies in planning ahead.
It is essential to begin thinking about the discharge plan as soon as you are admitted to the hospital. This approach allows you to:
- Assess the person’s needs: human assistance, medical equipment, nursing care, medical follow-up, etc.
- Mobilize appropriate professionals: personal care workers, home nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, etc.
- Coordinate services to avoid any disruption in the continuity of care.
The A Domicile Monaco teams regularly collaborate with the Principality’s hospitals to facilitate this transition and ensure a smooth transition upon returning home.
Personalized support at home
To ensure the safety, comfort, and well-being of elderly people upon their return, A Domicile Monaco provides tailored support, adapted to each situation:
- Assistance with washing, dressing, preparing, and eating meals.
- Monitoring medication intake.
- Moral support and maintaining social connections.
- Assistance with housework, shopping, and organizing daily life.
This support can be temporary, during convalescence, or long-term, depending on the progress of the person’s health.
Avoid support breaks
The main risk of a poorly organized return home is disorganization: lack of support in the first few days, delays in initiating care, feelings of isolation, etc.
This is why A Domicile Monaco places particular importance on coordination between the hospital, the family, and home care providers.
This continuity is the key to a peaceful and lasting return.
