What happens when a hospital stay creates a new crisis for an older adult—and the family is left navigating what comes next?

Join the National Placement & Referral Alliance (NPRA) of DFW for our November Chapter Meeting as we tackle a critical issue affecting older adults, healthcare professionals, and families across North Texas.

Hospital delirium, complex medical needs, premature or poorly coordinated discharges, and gaps in communication can create significant challenges for patients transitioning to the next level of care.

MEET OUR FEATURED SPEAKERS

THE CONVERSATION WE NEED TO HAVE:

Recognizing hospital delirium and understanding its impact on recovery

Identifying gaps in discharge planning and care coordination

Understanding how palliative and hospice services can support patients and families

Navigating complex transitions from hospitals to rehabilitation, senior living, and home

Strengthening collaboration between healthcare providers and senior placement professionals

A discharge is not the end of care. It is the beginning of the next critical transition.
