ComPacks Model of Care
ComPacks is a joint discharge program between multidisciplinary health teams and non health community case managers. It is designed to assist patients to leave hospital and return to functionality in a timely manner. The focus is on maximising patient independence and capacity in line with their preferences and goals while helping to manage demand across the health system. ComPacks clients are patients whose hospital length of stay may have been extended, or is at risk of being extended, because of difficulties or concerns about the availability of community support services needed to allow the person to leave hospital. ComPacks aims to optimise patient access to the community services they need for a safe and supported return home.
