Help after discharge

There are a number of resources available to help patients when they return home. The care team will assist the family with plans for care after discharge from hospital.

The Community Care Access Centre (CCAC) has case managers at this campus. These case managers may be consulted prior to patient discharge to review the available resources in the community.
