Case Management & Discharge Planning

Case Management consists of a Registered Nurse who coordinates hospital inpatient discharges. Amy Cox is our Case Manager. She works closely with providers, nurses, rehab therapies, and other healthcare professionals to assist patients in the hospital. She is part of the care team and participates in daily rounds with the medical staff. Case managers are often called upon to resolve clinical & psychosocial concerns, and to identify & remove barriers to enable a patient's timely discharge from the hospital.

The Case Manager is also available to educate patients and families on placement options into various types of care facilities, coordinating care with home health, hospice, and state agencies, and providing general resource assistance to patients and their families.
