What is hospital to home care? 


Our home from hospital care services in Southampton, Fareham and Gosport are designed to support those returning home from hospital. If you’re coming home following illness, injury, or an operation, it can be comforting to have the support of a CareGiver in place of hospital staff. 

Here’s just one of the great reviews of our Solent-based home from hospital service:

CareGivers helping client through doorway

"Right at Home provided wonderful care to my Dad when he came out of hospital following day surgery. The two carers that were with Dad for 24 hours were caring kind, supportive and helpful. It was reassuring to know that Dad could stay in his own home, which is what he wanted and that he would be looked after so well. This is the second time that we have used Right at Home for my Dad following operations and they provide a professional and caring service from the moment you call them to arrange care. I would recommend them to other people."

How do I qualify for hospital to home services in Solent?

Find information from Hampshire County Council regarding care after hospital discharge. 

Whether or not you qualify for NHS continuing healthcare funding after hospital discharge will depend on what your designated team of healthcare staff decide. If you feel you need healthcare related care and support when you leave hospital, speak to our team.

If you or a loved one require support after a stay in hospital, contact our Right at Home office in Solent to discuss your requirements.

What are reablement services?

Reablement is the term used in health and social care as an alternative name for short-term, after hospital care at home. Reablement services include help with daily activities that someone recovering from a hospital stay may not be able to complete alone. These may include washing, dressing and domestic tasks. 


Our highly-rated home from hospital services can be short-term or long-term, depending on your requirements. Long periods spent in hospital can take their toll on mental health and self-confidence as it can feel like you are no longer independent. We believe that intermediate care between hospital discharge and a return to normal life is far preferable to staying in hospital, as the familiar surroundings of your home will encourage your recovery back to health and independent living.

Can you be discharged from ICU to home?

It is very rare to be discharged directly from an intensive care unit (ICU) to home. Usually, after spending time in an intensive care unit, patients will be transferred to a hospital ward before being discharged home. This interim hospital stay allows you to receive necessary aftercare and continued 24-hour support whilst at your most vulnerable. 


Only once you have been correctly assessed and received any necessary rehabilitation treatment will you be allowed to return to your home. At this stage, you may seek some support from our CareGivers in your home, as it can be quite an adjustment to live independently after a stay in ICU.
