medical discharge

Medical discharge occurs when a patient is formally released from hospital or healthcare facility care because their condition has improved sufficiently or they no longer require inpatient treatment. It indicates that the healthcare team has determined the individual is stable enough to continue recovery at home or in another setting. The discharge process typically includes instructions for ongoing care, follow-up appointments, and any necessary therapies. It is a standard part of healthcare aimed at ensuring patients leave the facility safely, with appropriate plans in place to support their continued recovery outside of the hospital.
