How the service fits

Care navigation can organize referrals, discharge planning, equipment, public Home Care applications, Self and Family Managed Care, insurance, and the handoff between family and paid care.

Hospital and appointment handoff

If care follows a stay or appointment at Concordia Hospital, share the discharge date, written instructions, medication changes, mobility limits, equipment needs, and follow-up schedule. Prime provides discharge planning, hospital-to-home transportation, appointment escorts, nursing, and post-surgery support.

Home and scheduling details

The nurse assessment should review entrances, stairs or elevators, bathroom access, safe transfers, medication storage, caregiver access, parking, and whether overnight support is required. Confirm preferred visit times, appointment dates, family handoffs, language preferences, and whether overnight care means an awake shift or a live-in arrangement.
