How the service fits
Household support can focus on the tasks that affect safety and daily function, including laundry, linens, dishes, bathroom and kitchen upkeep, light cleaning, and reducing trip hazards.
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.
