Being discharged before lunch means more daylight hours to settle in and better support from community teams. For older patients, even short hospital stays can lead to significant loss of mobility and independence. Help your loved one get when they're ready.

Family and friends are essential in supporting the care of loved ones during their hospital stay. If you're visiting someone in the hospital, you can help by bringing personal items like clothing, medications, toiletries, and any necessary walking aids.
