About

Our Hull and East Riding Assisted Discharge Service supports people to return home safely following discharge from hospital. A medical or social care referral is required.

This service is for people who:

Are medically fit for discharge

Are mobile and able to get in and out of a vehicle unaided

Do not qualify for patient transport

We provide short‑term support for up to 48 hours following discharge, which may include:

Transport home from hospital

A welfare check on arrival home

Practical support to ensure you are safe and comfortable

Signposting and referrals to other relevant services and organisations

The service aims to support a safe transition home and reduce the risk of readmission.
