Care Navigation in Royalwood

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 Royalwood: Royalwood care planning can start with the home itself, including stairs, bathroom access, entrances, and overnight safety, then match household help, personal care, companionship, nursing, or continuous coverage to those findings.

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 St. Boniface 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.
