Home discharge refers to the process of a patient leaving a healthcare facility, such as a hospital or rehabilitation center, to return to their residence. This decision is typically made when the medical team believes the patient has recovered enough to continue their recovery at home, with or without additional support. Before discharge, healthcare providers often ensure that patients understand their follow-up care, medications, and any necessary lifestyle changes. They may also arrange for services like home health care or physical therapy to assist with the transition and promote ongoing recovery in the comfort of their own home.
