Administrative tasks can be a hassle when you have an elderly loved one to take care of. Instead of focusing on caregiving, you would need to go through the usually lengthy process of discharge planning, psychosocial counseling, grief counseling, case management, and referrals. Our medical social workers work for these very tasks. They can prepare patients for life after discharge or after leaving a residential setting. They can also help with:
- Group Counseling
- Alternative Living Arrangements
- Coordination of Follow-Up Medical Check-Ups or Treatment
- Foster Care Planning
- Assisting the Patient with Hospital Discharge
- Parenting Guidance and Counseling
- Advance Directives
- Support for Emotional Adjustments to Lifestyle Changes
- Resources for Healthcare Policy
- Supportive Case Work
