Common questions

Hospital-to-Home Care in Kingston: questions families ask

How do I arrange home care after leaving hospital in Kingston?

Call Aviora as soon as a discharge date is set - or before, when the procedure is scheduled. A matched caregiver in Kingston can be confirmed within 24–48 hours, ready for discharge day. No hospital referral or public system registration required.

When should I arrange hospital-to-home care in Kingston?

Before the discharge date - ideally when the surgery or hospital admission date is known. Discharge planning at hospitals in Kingston moves quickly; waiting until the day before leaves little time to arrange private care.

Does OHIP cover home care after hospital discharge in Kingston?

OHIP covers medical services. Post-discharge PSW support is funded through Ontario Health atHome based on assessed need, but may not begin immediately on discharge day. Private home care from Aviora starts the day the person arrives home.

Can Aviora arrange care at short notice for a discharge in Kingston?

Yes. In most cases, Aviora can confirm a caregiver in Kingston within 24–48 hours. For same-day or next-day discharges, call immediately and we will do our best to accommodate.
