Transition Care Services

Enrich Living Services offers intensive short term packages or transition care services in the south west country area of Western Australia to those looking to return home after a stay in hospital. We are the only Government approved provider of these services in this region.

Transition Care Services (TCS) aims to rehabilitate seniors after they have had a stay in hospital, for a period of up to 12 weeks (extensions available for up to 6 weeks with further approval from an Aged Care Assessment Team).

These short term packages seek to optimise the independence and functioning of people returning home after a stay in hospital. Support is provided through a variety of services focused on therapy and is case managed by a registered nurse from Enrich.

Services you might choose from include:

• Equipment to help you with movement around your home

• Continence aids

• Low-intensity therapies such as physiotherapy, speech therapy, dietetics and occupational therapy

• Nursing support

• Personal, domestic and social support

The highly successful Transition Care Services program is different from a normal home care in that it is therapy and goal focused aimed at helping people recover fast and get back into home life.

Accessing the program

You will need an ACAT assessment and an assessment by an Enrich nurse. The hospital staff will coordinate these assessments with you before you leave hospital.

If you are planning ahead for a hospital visit, please speak to your GP or call us for more information on 1300 20 20 03
