Post-Hospital Care

Short-term nursing support following hospital discharge to assist recovery and reduce the risk of readmission.

About Post-Hospital Care Service

Returning home after a hospital stay can be a challenging time, especially when ongoing care or monitoring is required. Post-hospital care provides professional nursing support to help veterans recover safely while adjusting back to daily life at home.

At Valour Health Services, our community nurses assist with monitoring recovery, managing treatment plans, and ensuring that discharge instructions from the hospital are followed correctly. Our goal is to provide reassurance and support during the transition from hospital to home.

By providing professional nursing care during this important stage of recovery, we help reduce the risk of complications and support a smoother, more comfortable healing process.

Who is this service for?

Veterans who have recently been discharged from hospital
Individuals recovering from surgery or medical treatment
Veterans who require monitoring during the early stages of recovery
Individuals who need assistance managing post-treatment care at home
Veterans who require wound care, medication support, or health monitoring after discharge
Families seeking professional support to assist a loved one during recovery

Accessing This Service Through DVA

Community nursing assessments may be available to eligible veterans through the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) Community Nursing Program. In most cases, a referral from a General Practitioner (GP) or healthcare professional is required before services can begin. Once a referral is received, our nursing team will arrange an assessment to determine the type and level of care required. If you are unsure about eligibility or how to begin the referral process, our team at Valour Health Services is happy to provide guidance and assistance.
