Supporting our Vulnerable Members - 10 AM PT / 11 AM MT / 12 PM CT / 1 PM ET

Support Before, During and After Hospitalization

Villages will always have members who are facing a hospital stay, often taking the member by surprise. We want to support these members before, during, and after hospitalization but this can involve a big time commitment and take a lot of resources. How can villages effectively, yet realistically, help these members during their time of need? Let’s discuss scenarios around members who are more prone to hospitalizations—and talk about what happens when a low-need member becomes a high-need member due to an unexpected hospitalization.



All Village to Village Network Members are invited to join us on a monthly call to talk about the important topic of supporting our most frail members. As the society ages, it is inevitable that our membership will age as well, so whether your Village is currently serving frail members or preparing to serve them, we will use this monthly call to unpack this complicated programming consideration.

Topics open to discussion include, but are not limited to: developing a volunteer-based care coordination system, creating healthy boundaries for member service delivery, setting realistic expectations for members and their families, coordinating with local community resources, when to make a referral to Adult Protective Services, etc. Please come with your questions and we will try to address as much as we can in the hour we have. Note: If you have any questions or comments about Frail Members, please contact vtv@vtvnetwork.org.
