We have designed and built Patient Discharge Solutions for Councils and the NHS. Our collaboration with public authorities and the NHS has helped to reduce re-admission levels and greatly improve the numbers of patients able to receive care at home. It is a reality that those receiving care recover better if that care is received within their own homes. We provide a far quicker service than that from an Adult Social Care provider, facilitating those in our care to become enabled faster helping to retain their dignity in the process and lessening the burden on their loved ones.
