Discharge Planning
Every patient is assessed for discharge planning needs by a nurse case manager. The nurse case manager works closely with you and your family, your physician, primary nurse, and the rest of your health care team to develop a safe and therapeutic discharge plan. That discharge plan provides for any continued care needs you may have after you leave the hospital.
