Care Navigation in North End
Care Navigation. Nurse-led. Doctor-supported.
Nurse-led coordination across physicians, specialists, WRHA Home Care, insurance, and community resources — so families stop playing case manager for a system that does not talk to itself.
Care planning in North End: North End care can bring foot care, nursing, personal care, transportation, care navigation, or family support into the home while coordinating follow-up with Health Sciences Centre and community health services.
How this service connects to local care
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 Health Sciences Centre, 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.
