You have a small window to find the right next setting for your loved one.

Clinical context

Older adults discharged after a relatively minor hospitalization often present with significant deconditioning, weight loss, or cognitive decline that wasn't visible pre-hospitalization. Sometimes called "hospitalization-induced frailty." Many cannot return safely home.

The 4-hour SLA

Hour 0: St. Luke's discharge planner submits a PHI-free intake (initials only, care level, mobility, target window).
Hour 1: SeniorIQ's match engine runs against the live HHSC-licensed community registry.
Hour 2-3: Real-time bed-availability check via email and phone.
Hour 4: Top-3 verified matches delivered to the discharge planner. Texas Chapter 121 disclosure auto-generated for the family.

Family checklist before move-in

1Confirm community can adjust care levels as recovery progresses
2Review nutrition protocol (weight loss is common post-hospitalization)
3Verify physical therapy continuity
4Check fall-prevention protocol
5Review socialization and engagement programming (isolation worsens frailty)
6Confirm primary-care continuity (will the resident's PCP travel to the community, or do they transition to a community-affiliated PCP)
