Hospital Discharge Care in Romford
From hospital bed to home routine — smoothly
When the discharge planner at Queen’s Hospital Romford says ‘your mum can go home tomorrow’, families have a day to organise care. Oath Healthcare’s Romford team can complete a home assessment, write a care plan, and start care within 48 hours — even faster for fast-track referrals.

Common questions from Romford families
Will you talk to the Queen’s Hospital Romford discharge team?
Yes — that’s the start of every discharge package. We get the discharge summary, medication list, and any specialist instructions before the first care visit.
How fast can you really start?
From a phone call by 10am, we can usually have a coordinator at the bedside or home by lunchtime, with care starting that evening or next morning. For fast-track palliative discharges, even faster.
Can we use NHS-funded reablement first?
If your loved one qualifies, absolutely. We typically take over after 6 weeks of free NHS reablement — or alongside, if reablement is partial. We help families navigate the handover.
What if needs change in the first week?
We expect them to. The first care plan is a working document — we review at days 3, 7, and 14 and adjust upwards or downwards based on how recovery is going.
