Discharge Planning Support at Home in San Dimas, CA

Foothill Discharge Planning for San Dimas Residents

San Dimas is a foothill community with small-town character – historic downtown along Bonita Avenue, Frank G. Bonelli Regional Park, and quiet residential streets shaded by mature trees. Many San Dimas residents are longtime homeowners who have aged in place and intend to stay. When hospitalization happens, the priority is getting home and staying home – not transferring to a facility. HarvardCare’s licensed medical social worker comes to your San Dimas home to coordinate the services that make safe, independent home recovery possible.

Home Over Facility – With the Right Support

The hospital discharge team may suggest a skilled nursing facility. For many San Dimas patients, coming home is the better option – with proper planning. Our social worker evaluates whether home recovery is safe by assessing your San Dimas home, coordinating nursing visits for clinical monitoring, arranging physical therapy and occupational therapy with daily living training, setting up medication management, and conducting a fall risk assessment of your specific property.

Foothill Home Considerations

San Dimas homes near the foothills may have steps, sloped driveways, and terrain challenges. Our social worker evaluates your property and arranges safety modifications before your family member arrives home from the hospital.
