Home Care Path Gets Grant From St. Clare Health Care Foundation

Home Care Path has received a grant from St. Clare Health Care Foundation Baraboo Wisconsin to raise community awareness of efforts to manage hospital readmissions.  Federal policy encourages communities to act on strategies to reduce hospital readmission rates.  This is a Healthy Community Partnership Grant from St. Clare Health Care Foundation.

Long term health care planners have identified "Care Transitions" as an important area for managing hospital readmissions.  Home Care Path has developed an original Wisconsin model called PATH ALONG designed to communicate each inpatient to outpatient care transition.  Listed with each care transition is the dynamic component.  Focusing on the dynamic component saves the patient from reacting to the varied hospital departments simultaneous operations and keeps the attention on pragmatic aspects present in all favorable outcomes of recovery.

The rationale is listed with each care transition which adds predictable structure to a changing flow, respecting personal preference, and supporting an internal locus of control.  The grant provides for three community presentations designed to help individuals better understand the concept of care transitions preventing a re-hospitalization. 

Each individual attending will receive a care transitions coaching sheet to take with them.  Those attending will be able to effectively share this information with friends and family. 
This is an inclusive approach to encouraging families to become more comfortable with the varied connections throughout the inpatient and outpatient recovery process.  Home Care Path will be posting the location, date,  and time of the presentations when they are scheduled.

Home Care Path would like to take this opportunity to thank the St. Clare Health Care Foundation for their participation in this very important Healthy Community Partnership Grant Project.
