A plan for the person, the home, and the schedule
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 Victoria General 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, bathroom access, transfer needs, medication storage, winter access, and whether equipment or an awake overnight shift is required. For service outside Winnipeg, confirm the exact address, proposed hours, travel arrangements, minimum shift structure, overnight needs, and backup plan before care begins.
