Let's Go Home (LEGHO)

Bundled CSS Supports for Hospital Dischargand Community Stabilization.

This program provides clients access to free community services for a short period of time to ensure a successful recovery period so they don’t return to the hospital. A Care Planner does an assessment and regular check ins, and links clients to various services they may need. In addition to Care Planning, Transportation, Meals on Wheels, and Home Help are the core services provided to all clients. These services provide support while clients rebuild their strength and ability to live independently. This is not only crucial for our clients, but for the health system as well as it helps to relieve pressure in our hospitals.

To register or for additional information 1-877-502-8277 and ask for the Let’s Go Home (LEGHO) program.
