Recovery doesn't end at hospital discharge and now for Caboolture Hospital patients, help is only one phone call away. 📞🏥
The nurse-led Discharge Support Service offers advice and support to patients discharged from medical and surgical wards regarding wound care. pain management and helping coordinate GP referrals and outpatient services.
Clinical Nurse Consultant Lynette is leading the rollout of this service which builds on the success of the Post-Operative Discharge Support Service (PODSS) that was implemented at STARS.
“Patients can contact the service within 30 days of leaving hospital to receive advice and support from our nursing team," she said.
“PODSS has been incredibly successful in supporting patients after surgery and reducing the need for hospital readmission."

I kindly ask all my friends and loved ones to pray for my recovery. If anyone is able to offer financial help, please support me. Your prayers and your support mean a lot to me. Thank you for your kindness 🙏
I was discharged home from the PA's recovery room after surgery after they used two plates and screws to repair three fractures. I never saw the inside of a ward. When they sent me home they organised no home care for me and I live alone without support. As a former scrub nurse in an operating theatre it was the worse care I have ever seen of a surgical patient. Unlike the RBHWH which is very professional and caring. I think you guys should go to the PA and teach them about post operative care. Their CNC could learn a lot from you.
