Benefits to the Community:
Social Services is the advocate for patients and residents. One of our primary responsibilities is to assist in identifying the needs of the patient/resident and to help in fulfilling these needs. We assist in making the transition from hospital to home or Long Term Care as smooth as possible for both the patient/resident and the family. We are also here to assist in meeting the emotional needs of the residents/patients and families. We work hand in hand with patient/resident families to ensure their freedom of choice. |
