The Transitions of Care program provides education, resources, and care coordination for vulnerable adults residing in San Mateo, Santa Clara, or Alameda counties. Once a referral is placed by a hospital clinician, patients are offered services for up to 60 days after they are discharged from Stanford Hospital or from post-acute facility, to home. The Transitions of Care team includes nurses, social workers, a geriatrician, a pharmacist, and an occupational therapist.
Established in 2006, Aging Adult Services (AAS) was designed to serve older adults and their families across the care continuum. Rooted in geriatric principles, the program emphasized healthy aging and provided essential support to patients in the inpatient, skilled nursing, and ambulatory settings. Over time, the AAS program has evolved to address the needs of a more diverse, complex, and vulnerable patient population. With continued expansion of our program, the name "Aging Adult Services" no longer accurately reflects the scope of our mission. Therefore, the program is now called “Transitions of Care” to better align with our commitment to serving a broader patient demographic during the critical post-hospital discharge period.
Transitions of Care offers a variety of support services and resources for all aspects of care including:
