护理 coordination services
Whether or not you’re a 蒙太奇的健康 patient, you can rely on Community 医院 of the Monterey Peninsula’s social workers for help to find and access resources for yourself or your family.
Confidential support
Reach out to our 护理 Coordination Services department if you or a loved one are going through a stressful experience, life transition, or health challenge. You may benefit from:
- Assessment of your current medical, financial, housing, and social needs
- Identification of your current resources and strengths
- Short-term counseling and compassionate emotional support for you and your loved ones
- Problem-solving strategies
- Information about services from 蒙太奇的健康 and other local organizations that may be helpful
Continuing care and discharge planning
Continuing care services are available to anyone in the area. But if you’re currently getting treatment at Community 医院, planning ahead can help you reach your best health outcome. It may also prepare you to leave the hospital sooner, so you can recover in the comfort of home.
When you take part in our continuing care program, you’ll talk to a discharge planner about:
- What will happen when you’re discharged from (leave) the hospital. Will you transition home or to another healthcare facility, such as Westland House?
- What continued or additional services, such as home care visits, transportation assistance, or community resources, may be helpful to you and your loved ones
