Post-Hospital Care

The bridge between hospital and home

Coming home from the hospital should feel like relief. But if you’ve been there, you know the truth: those first days and weeks are fragile. New medications with confusing instructions. An incision that needs watching. A body that’s weaker than you expected. And a quiet fear — what if something goes wrong?

Most hospital readmissions happen because the transition home didn’t have enough support. Our post-hospital care exists to close that dangerous gap — bringing nursing, therapy, and watchful guidance into your home from the very first days, so recovery moves forward instead of backward.

Who it’s for

Post-hospital care is for anyone in Denver or Colorado Springs coming home after surgery, pneumonia, heart failure, infection, or any hospital stay — especially if you live alone, feel unsteady, or are simply anxious about managing. If the discharge papers felt overwhelming, you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

How to start

The best time to arrange post-hospital care is before you leave the hospital — but it’s never too late. Call (888) 929-2050, and we’ll coordinate with your discharge team and physician, verify your coverage, and get care started within days. We work with UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Kaiser, Medicaid, Medicare, Humana, and Devoted. Coverage varies by plan, so call us and we’ll help verify yours.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can care start after discharge?

Very quickly — often within a day or two. Call us from the hospital if you can; we’ll coordinate with the discharge planners so support is waiting when you walk through your front door.

What happens if something goes wrong at home?

Your nurse is trained to spot trouble early — and to act. We’ll assess, contact your physician immediately, and guide you on next steps. Catching problems early is exactly what this service is for.

Do you communicate with my hospital team?

Yes. We review your discharge plan, coordinate with your doctors, and keep everyone informed of your progress. You get one connected team instead of fragments.

Will my insurance cover post-hospital home health?

We work with UnitedHealthcare, Optum, Kaiser, Medicaid, Medicare, Humana, and Devoted. Coverage varies by plan — call us at (888) 929-2050 and we’ll verify your benefits and handle the physician orders.
