Care Management
Yavapai Regional Medical Center’s (YRMC’s) Total Healing Environment recognizes the relationship between the body, mind and spirit. Our Care Management team puts this philosophy into action by helping patients and their families prepare physically and emotionally to return home after hospitalization or move to the next level of care.

FAQs
Discharge planning begins as soon as a patient is admitted to the hospital. Your discharge from the hospital will take place as soon as possible after the physician order is written. However, from the time you are first admitted to YRMC, your healthcare team plans for care you may need after you’re discharged from the hospital. It takes into account a patient’s physical, emotional and financial needs to ensure a successful transition to the next level of recovery and care after discharged from the hospital.
Understanding what you need to know and do after being discharged from the hospital is important to your full recovery. Your physician and the entire YRMC healthcare team encourage you to ask questions and clarify any instructions before you are discharged from the hospital.
