Social services staff coordinate discharge planning, family meetings, and insurance documentation. A full-time activities team organizes therapeutic recreation that aligns with individual care plans, and transportation is provided for outside dialysis, oncology, or specialist appointments. On-site lab draws and mobile X-ray reduce the need for hospital trips, and a consulting dietitian adjusts meal plans to match physician-ordered diets.
