The critical 72 hours
The gap between hospital and home is where emergencies happen
Your parent is discharged. They can barely walk to the bathroom. The hospital hands you a sheet of paper and says "arrange home care." You call the public system - they say 2–6 weeks. Two days later, your parent falls. Back to the ER. This happens thousands of times a year in Ontario.
Aviora's hospital-to-home care is designed for exactly this window. Structured support that starts before the discharge chaos sets in - mobility assistance, medication management, personal care, meal preparation, and routine re-establishment during the most dangerous recovery period.
As recovery progresses, care adapts. Many families transition into ongoing personal support or mobility & routine support. The same caregiver continues throughout - no re-introductions, no lost context.
If you are searching for post-hospital home care near me or discharge care in Ontario, Aviora bridges the gap between hospital and home safely. We provide recovery support across 120+ Ontario communities - from Hamilton and Mississauga to Kingston, North Bay, and beyond - with care starting before or immediately after discharge.
Is this the right service?
Who hospital-to-home care is for
Post-surgery recovery
Hip replacement, cardiac surgery, knee surgery - the first weeks at home determine whether recovery succeeds or complications arise.
After a fall or fracture
Confidence is shattered. Mobility is limited. A caregiver provides safe movement support and fall prevention during the critical recovery window.
Stroke recovery at home
Returning home after a stroke requires structured daily support - mobility, personal care, routine rebuilding. Consistent caregiving accelerates adaptation.
Families caught off guard by discharge
The hospital says "they're ready to go home." You're not ready. Aviora bridges the gap with care arranged before or immediately after discharge.
Preventing hospital readmission
Readmission within 30 days is common without proper home support. Structured care - medication, nutrition, mobility - dramatically reduces that risk.
Transitioning to ongoing home care
Hospital-to-home is often the entry point. As recovery stabilizes, care evolves into personal support or companionship.
What's included
Hospital-to-home - structured for safe recovery
Mobility & Transfer Support
Safe movement around the home, bed-to-chair transfers, assisted walking, and fall prevention during the recovery period.
Personal Care
Bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting support adapted to post-surgical or post-injury limitations.
Medication Reminders
Post-discharge medication schedules are often complex. Consistent reminders keep recovery on track. See medication reminder details.
Meal Preparation
Nutritious meals supporting recovery - protein-rich, anti-inflammatory, or diet-specific as prescribed.
Routine Re-establishment
Rebuilding daily structure - wake-up routines, meal times, activity schedules. Predictability accelerates recovery.
Recovery Updates
After every visit - mobility observations, appetite, mood, medication compliance, and anything requiring attention. Complete visibility for the family.
How it works
From hospital bed to home care - 48 hours
Step 1 - Call before discharge
Call Aviora as soon as discharge is mentioned - even before a date is set. We plan while you're still at the hospital. The earlier, the smoother.
Step 2 - Recovery plan & caregiver match
Written plan aligned to discharge instructions. A caregiver matched for the specific recovery needs. Everything is clearly explained before care starts. You approve before day one.
Step 3 - Same caregiver from day one
Care starts the day they come home - or the next morning. The caregiver arrives briefed on the medical context, medications, and mobility limitations.
