A transition of care happens when a patient moves from one healthcare setting or provider to another, such as from a hospital to rehab, home care, or a specialist.

Making sure medications, records, instructions, and follow-up plans are communicated can help make the transition smoother.

Outreach Patient Advocates can help you stay organized through care transitions, so you know what information to bring forward and what comes next.

When caregivers understand a patient’s priorities, preferences, and care goals, they can provide support that better reflects what the patient wants. It can also make conversations with family members and healthcare providers clearer.

Keep the patient’s voice at the center of their care. Outreach Patient Advocates can help caregivers and families better understand goals, organize questions, and navigate important healthcare conversations.

Seeing multiple doctors can make healthcare complicated. Knowing who is coordinating your care can help keep medications, test results, referrals, and next steps organized across your healthcare team.

If managing your care feels like a job of its own, Outreach Patient Advocates can help connect the dots, organize the details, and keep you prepared for what comes next.

Before your appointment, consider asking:

• What could be causing my symptoms?
• Do I need any tests or follow-up care?
• What are my treatment options?
• What are the potential benefits and risks?
• Should I make any changes to my medications or routine?
• What symptoms should prompt me to seek additional care?
• When should I schedule my next follow-up?

Prioritize your biggest concerns so they don’t get lost during a busy appointment.

Walk into your next appointment with your questions ready and your priorities clear. Outreach Patient Advocates can help you prepare, organize important information, and make sure the concerns that matter to you stay part of the conversation.

Why We Hired a Patient Advocate - by Becky Korinek

I never saw myself needing an advocate for my mom, but here we are. My mom has always been independent, intelligent, witty, creative, and truly the life of the party. My two sisters and I live in the same town as mom and we’re all very close. So why would we need to hire a Patient Advocate?

Things started falling apart about 2.5 years ago when Mom had a heart attack while on a bus trip to Myrtle Beach. While recovery went well, and she flew home a few days later, boy did that slow her down. Mom went from two medications to seven, and it’s been like a game of whack-a-mole ever since. Blood pressure. Hemoglobin. Dizziness and nausea.

After a series of unexpected low blood pressure incidents, Mom was unable to continue driving. Losing the car resulted in her feeling left behind, isolated and lonely. She’s now made the choice to move to an independent living community.

Again - why hire a Patient Advocate? Although we all live in the same town, my two sisters both work full-time. I have a flexible job, but just had major surgery. With three or four weekly appointments, it’s impossible for us to handle mom’s calendar right now.

Our advocate, Laura, takes care of everything.

Just yesterday, she transported Mom to the appointment, went into the room, asked questions, took notes, and followed through to ensure that Mom understood the steps going forward. She emailed my sisters and me detailed notes within 24 hours. In preparation for an upcoming procedure, Laura changed the meds in mom’s pill pack.

Honestly, even after I’m recovered, we will likely keep using Laura as our advocate.

Believe me when I say that Outreach has taken a huge weight off of our shoulders!

Patient advocates aren’t only for people with serious illnesses. They can assist with preparing for appointments, organizing medical information, understanding care plans, communicating with healthcare providers, navigating transitions of care, and sorting through insurance or billing questions.

Sometimes, simply having someone help you organize the details can make navigating healthcare feel more manageable.

You don’t have to wait until healthcare becomes overwhelming to ask for support. Connect with Outreach Patient Advocates and put an experienced advocate in your corner to help you stay informed, organized, and heard throughout your healthcare journey.

Advance care planning gives you an opportunity to consider and communicate your preferences for future healthcare in case you’re ever unable to speak for yourself. Documenting your wishes can provide peace of mind while reducing uncertainty for loved ones who may otherwise have to make difficult decisions without knowing what you would want.

Give yourself and your family the gift of greater clarity. Outreach Patient Advocates can help you navigate advance care planning conversations and take thoughtful steps toward documenting your wishes.

Another month, another fantastic care companion!

We’re excited to celebrate another one of our fabulous Care Companions, Lauren!

Lauren is from Papillion and is the second oldest of five children. She has a dog named Peanut and a five month old kitten named Lola.

One thing Lauren loves is ballet - she has practiced it since she was three years old! In fact, she even taught ballet to elementary students for a while. While attending Papillion LaVista High School, Lauren did show choir for all four years.

After graduating from high school, Lauren earned her undergraduate degree in psychology from Creighton University. She is happy to be continuing at Creighton in the Occupational Therapy program. She’s hoping to work with the older population upon graduating.

When she’s not busy with school or Outreach (or nannying), Lauren enjoys getting coffee with friends, baking, going to pilates class and hanging out with friends.

Lauren loves working with the Outreach because the clients are so special. She enjoys hearing everyone’s stories.

We’re so glad that Lauren has chosen to share her talents with Outreach - she adds so much to the team!

Changes in appetite, memory, mobility, or daily routines can make it harder for some older adults to eat regularly or remember to drink enough fluids. Gentle reminders and practical support can help them stay consistent with everyday needs while preserving independence.

Could a little extra support make your loved one’s daily routine easier? Outreach Patient Advocates can help families explore care and companionship options that support comfort, routine, and independence.
