Guiding your recovery journey with seamless, heartfelt support
Preventing Hospital Revisits

No family wants to see their loved one return to the hospital after being discharged. Ardent Care prides itself on maintaining a low rehospitalization rate with our clients. If the care is to begin following the hospital or rehabilitation center discharge, we coordinate with the facility’s Physical Therapist and have this person provide training for the caregiver to best assist the client. Through one-on-one specialized care, our well-trained caregivers help prevent falls and encourage daily exercises prescribed by a Physical Therapist or Occupational Therapist. Our caregivers prepare well-balanced meals and offer medication reminders. These factors all contribute to the wellness and safety of our clients.

Preventing Readmissions Through Expert Care Coordination

What truly distinguishes Ardent Care is our proactive approach to preventing hospital revisits. We don’t just provide care — we partner closely with hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and therapists to ensure a smooth recovery transition in Bloomingdale Illinois. From the moment your loved one is discharged, our caregivers receive specialized training from the facility’s Physical Therapist or Occupational Therapist. This collaborative effort ensures our team understands the unique needs and therapy exercises prescribed for your loved one.

Our Approach to Reducing Rehospitalization

Preventing a hospital revisit requires attention to many details. Our caregivers provide one-on-one, specialized care focused on the following:

  • Fall Prevention: We create safe environments, monitor mobility, and encourage exercises designed to improve balance and strength.
  • Therapy Exercise Support: Caregivers assist with daily exercises prescribed by Physical or Occupational Therapists to support recovery and improve function.
  • Medication Management: We offer timely medication reminders and ensure medications are taken as directed.
  • Nutrition and Meal Preparation: Our caregivers prepare well-balanced meals tailored to dietary needs that promote healing and overall wellness.
  • Continuous Monitoring: Caregivers observe changes in health status and communicate any concerns promptly to family members and healthcare providers.
  • This comprehensive approach not only improves quality of life but significantly reduces the risk of complications that lead to rehospitalization.
