When the patient leaves the hospital after overnight stay or following treatment as a day-case patient, we want them to return home with a new confidence. Hence, we prepare a discharge plan for every individual patient. All the members of the healthcare team are responsible for helping with the discharge planning process.

The experienced staff at Kalra makes sure that patients are:

• Provided with all the necessary advice, information, and medical supplies to enable their immediate return home.
• Given all the relevant contact details to enable them to call the hospital at any time should any problems arise.
• Contacted by a member of our care team, once they are home (if they so wish), and to confirm that they are making a satisfactory recovery, and to provide them with any further advice.

Discharge Procedure

The concerned doctor will determine when the patient may be discharged. To complete the discharge process, please observe the following procedures:

• While discharge times vary from patient to patient, we advise to make transportation arrangement for the patients accordingly.
• On the day the patient is discharged, a member of the family should go to the Cashier's Office and receive the discharge slip indicating that all the payments have been made.
• Before you leave, be sure you understand all the instructions regarding medications or follow-up office visits.
• Don't forget to check all drawers, cabinets, and night stands before leaving to make sure you have all your belongings. The hospital is not responsible for any personal property left behind.
• When the patient is ready to leave, hospital personnel will escort him/her to the main lobby entrance.
