readmission prevention

Readmission prevention involves strategies to help patients recover fully and avoid needing to return to the hospital soon after discharge. This can include thorough discharge planning, proper medication management, follow-up appointments, patient education, and support services. The goal is to address health issues early, ensure patients understand their care instructions, and provide resources to manage their conditions at home. By doing this, healthcare providers aim to improve patient outcomes, reduce unnecessary hospital visits, and lower healthcare costs, promoting a smoother, safer recovery process for patients.
