Leaving hospital is often a welcome milestone — but the transition from hospital to home can come with its own set of challenges, especially for older adults and NDIS participants. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, illness, or managing a chronic condition, the right support can make all the difference to your recovery and peace of mind.
At Medicross Care, we specialise in supporting smooth, safe hospital discharges for our Medicross Medical patients who are aged care clients and NDIS participants. Our experienced team works closely with hospitals, clinical teams, and families to ensure everything is in place for a successful return home — with continuity, care, and confidence.
Why Hospital Discharge Planning Matters
A well-planned hospital discharge is essential for:
- Reducing the risk of re-admission
- Supporting recovery in a familiar environment
- Managing medications, follow-up care, and appointments
- Preventing gaps in care or confusion about next steps
Without the right support, a discharge can feel overwhelming — especially when dealing with mobility changes, new medications, or complex care needs.
How Medicross Care Can Help
Our team is experienced in navigating hospital discharge procedures and understands the importance of getting everything right the first time. We can:
- Coordinate directly with hospital discharge planners, nurses, and allied health teams
- Organise in-home supports ahead of your discharge, so you’re not left waiting
- Assist with transport and settling in at home on the day of discharge
- Provide in-home nursing or personal care support, including wound care, mobility assistance, medication management, and more
- Help manage outpatient appointments, transport, and follow-up care
- Support ongoing care plans, including Allied Health referrals, GP visits, or NDIS plan implementation
We’re also able to liaise with your GP or Medicross clinic, ensuring your primary healthcare provider is kept informed and involved in your care journey.
