Aims
The program aims to achieve a smooth transition for those clients with more complex health needs, returning back into the community from an acute episode in a public hospital, either acute or sub acute facility in Victoria. This will be achieved through the provision of coordinated, appropriate and timely Post Acute Care Services.
Program objectives are:
-- Provide additional home-based services to assist individuals to recuperate after hospitalisation;
-- Improve continuity of care for patients following their discharge from hospital;
-- Work collaboratively with hospitals to provide support to patients as an alternative to inpatient admission from the emergency department, where appropriate; and
-- Assist hospitals and sub-acute services to maximise use of beds for patients who require hospital services.
