Helping Portsmouth & Waterlooville Patients Get Home Sooner: How Cavendish Health Care & Renta Scoota Can Support Hospital Discharge
In Portsmouth and Waterlooville, hospitals are facing increasing pressure due to delays in discharging patients who are medically fit to leave.
One of the key barriers?
A lack of timely access to mobility equipment and suitable home adaptations. These issues not only affect patient well-being but also strain hospital resources and bed availability.
At Cavendish Health Care & Mobility and our sister company Renta Scoota, trading as Mobility at Sea, we believe everyone deserves the dignity of recovering in the comfort of their own home. That's why we're committed to being part of the solution.
The Problem: Equipment Shortages and Housing Challenges
Local reports and council documents highlight several systemic issues:
- Delays in providing mobility aids like walking frames, crutches, and wheelchairs.
- Staff shortages, especially occupational therapists, are slowing down assessments and equipment prescriptions.
- Supply chain and funding issues are affecting timely delivery.
- These challenges mean patients often stay in the hospital longer than necessary, waiting for the right support to be available at home.
