Ensure your loved one has access to award-winning care once they are discharged from hospital. Choose from a variety of customisable homecare options to suit their needs.
After staying in hospital, it’s important that your family member can safely reacclimatise to life at home. At Ashridge Home Care, our care teams can help with everything from simple daily tasks to complex medical needs.
In most circumstances, hospital discharge is only arranged if the person returning home can continue to receive the right level of care outside of the hospital setting. Having this care in place is particularly important for those living with a cognitive impairment, as extended stays in the hospital can make their home unfamiliar and disorienting.
Care providers, like Ashridge Home Care, can offer a variety of support that’s catered to the needs of your family so that you can safely welcome your loved one home.
We offer a range of home care options, all of which can be catered to meet the needs of your loved one. Depending on the frequency and level of support and care your family needs after returning from the hospital, you can choose between 24/7 live-in care or hourly care. Our specialist care options are available for those who require extra specialised support for medical conditions and their associated treatments- such as dementia, Parkinson’s, or cancer.
Meanwhile, complex care is designed to support those facing chronic, progressive illnesses or injuries, with carers trained to support patients living with brain injuries, Parkinson’s or with catheters or stomas that require specialised attention. Rehabilitation care is ideally suited for those who require either short or long-term rehab following an injury, operation or illness.
At Ashridge Home Care, we provide after-hospital home care services that can be tailored to the needs of your family members. Our dedicated team of carers offer a range of services to support your family members as they return to their daily routines. Our after-hospital care services include, but are not limited to:
Receiving home care after spending time in hospital will allow your loved one to relax and settle back into their routines. Just some of the benefits of home care after hospital discharge include:
After-hospital care for the elderly is particularly important. Elderly individuals are less able to keep up with rehabilitation, and if their care needs have changed following a stay in hospital, it can be difficult for families to adapt. After hospital home care will ensure that your elderly relative’s care routine is adjusted to meet their needs so that they can safely return from hospital. Having an at home care plan will allow you to focus on spending time together as a family.
At Ashridge Home Care, we work alongside your family, medical professionals and external carers to ensure that your loved one is always receiving the highest level of care.
We collaborate with you to build a care plan that supports your family member’s needs as they return from hospital. We partner with specialists in rehabilitation and holistic treatment to ensure that the care we offer can always offer the latest innovations and treatments, carried out by certified professionals.

Ashridge provided an emergency placement for me when I needed a live-in carer on 24hrs notice. This was a godsend to me as my mother had advanced Alzheimer’s and my Dad had been rushed into hospital. I really appreciated the professional approach from all the staff I dealt with and felt very supported. Ashridge found me a first class carer who was able to provide wonderful live-in care for both my parents allowing them to spend a few more months together in their home of 35 years. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ashridge and live-in care.
Choosing care is a huge decision and not something that you should take lightly. Some of these conversations can be tricky and it’s our job to make sure you feel as comfortable as possible.
