Housepital Improves Care Coordination Through Intake And E-Marketing Integration

The Housepital Company has recently announced the creation of the intake and community relations specialist, who will be responsible for directing the company into other avenues and be the front lines of all cases.

Since 2010, HOUSEpital has been providing complete transitional care services “from the hospital to the home” to those in the Chicagoland area. This includes coordination of home care, insurance enrollment and housing services to planning significant occasions in the life of loved ones. Quality care management is important in the successful transition from a medical facility into a housing situation with home healthcare. 

HOUSEpital recently decided to take their service to the next level by developing a new intake coordinator role, which while allow a more seamless integration between referral and discharge. The intake coordinator’s job on the file does not stop until the person returns home, which provides an exceptional level of support for someone who may be apprehensive about leaving the hospital. The ultimate goal is to get that individual transitioned over to a housing situation where they can rehabilitate and thrive.

In addition, HOUSEpital’s intake coordinator will be responsible for the community outreach through social media and online marketing. The new development of marketing materials will ease a client’s potential difficulties of adjusting to a transition in life. These materials include multiple weekly blogs and tips for a better quality of life through use of social media, educational flyers and biweekly newsletters. The whole point of this approach is to increase a person’s self-worth and functioning through education, motivation and empowerment.
