The expected buzz words of the community wide initiative to reduce hospital readmissions is scheduled presence. Hospital discharge planners can clearly explain some patients are too ill to send home alone, but not sick enough for a hospital stay. An aging population, with a geographically dispersed family, and multiple medical diagnosis can mean an increased risk for a rehospitalization.
With less on site staff being employed to effectively coordinate an individual's need for care some families will require a service that delivers support through a scheduled presence. Seniors too ill to be sent home alone, but not manifesting symptoms severe enough to indicate a hospital stay can benefit from the service the Wisconsin PATH ALONG model performs.
The Wisconsin PATH ALONG model has staff who accompany the senior through the inpatient process. This scheduled presence can give families a better understanding of the expectations of the varied inpatient departments caring for the senior. The model includes strategies to improve the quality of the inpatient stay with each defined transition.
Post hospitalized patients find the scheduled presence of PATH ALONG staff facilitates a safer recovery . This assures the involved medical providers are rapidly informed of changes in condition. The PATH ALONG model secures the link between inpatient to outpatient medical service delivery. This is an advanced form of supportive care evolving to best meet the changing needs of an aging population.
