It can be stressful when someone you love is discharged from the hospital. How much care will be needed? Will medications change? Is special equipment necessary? How and who will provide care at home?

In this episode, we talk about what you should consider after hospital discharge. These are;

  • Medical Expenses
  • Other Financial Issues
