Care that puts your recovery first.
Here’s how transitional care can help:
- Quick placement – care often begins within 24 hours, helping make the transition home or to a rehab facility smoother.
- Encouragement to stay engaged – gentle motivation to participate in therapy, movement, and daily routines.
- Medication and appointment help – from picking up prescriptions to helping you get to follow-up appointments, we help take care of the everyday tasks.
- Support for healthy routines – help with meals, hydration, rest, and daily structure.
- Reduced isolation – meaningful conversation can greatly help improve mood during a vulnerable time.
- Added safety and supervision – extra support to help reduce risks that may lead to setbacks or unnecessary hospital readmissions.

Transitional Care FAQs
For existing clients, and with permission from the client and family, a Care Pro may participate in hospital discharge planning.
That can include meeting with nurses, therapists, social workers, discharge planners, and other members of the care team.
Hearing instructions directly can help the Care Pro understand mobility limitations, precautions, follow-up appointments, dietary needs, equipment recommendations, and recovery goals before the client returns home.
Our local team can help provide a familiar presence when family can’t immediately be there.
One daughter was on a month-long cruise when her previously independent mother fell and broke her hip. Care Pro Essie visited during rehabilitation, brought personal items from home, provided companionship, and helped her stay connected.
The relationship continued after recovery, and Essie still visits several times each week.
Home Instead Mabank can typically begin care within 24 hours, depending on the client’s needs and available staffing.
When possible, involving us before discharge gives the team time to understand the recovery plan and prepare for the person’s return home.
