Do you notice your loved one making frequent hospital visits for recurring health issues — or struggling with a chronic illness like diabetes, heart disease, or COPD?
These conditions often require ongoing care, close monitoring, and lifestyle support that’s hard to manage alone. That’s where home health care services in North Bay can make a life-changing difference.
At Maple Leaf, we help families reduce unnecessary hospital trips by providing professional nursing and in-home support that keeps recovery safe and consistent.
Understanding Chronic Illness and Rehospitalization
Chronic illnesses such as:
- Diabetes
- Hypertension
- Congestive heart failure
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- Stroke recovery
- Arthritis or mobility-limiting conditions
…often lead to hospital readmissions when symptoms aren’t properly managed at home. Many of these hospital visits are preventable with the right home-based care plan.
According to Health Quality Ontario, nearly 20–30% of hospital readmissions in older adults can be reduced through professional home health care interventions.
Why Frequent Hospital Visits Happen
There are several reasons families face repeated hospital stays:
- Missed medication doses or wrong administration
- Poor wound care or infection control
- Uncontrolled blood pressure or blood sugar fluctuations
- Lack of physiotherapy or mobility support after discharge
- Delayed follow-ups with physicians
- Inadequate nutrition or hydration
These challenges are common—but they don’t have to be permanent.
