Helping Families Navigate the Hospital-to-Home Journey
Many families — especially seniors and newcomers — struggle with the gaps between hospital teams, community services, and home care. Important details can get lost, follow-up instructions may feel unclear, and it can be hard to know who to turn to for help.
These are exactly the gaps where Liora Ministry provides support.
Why This Work Matters
Across Canada:
- 1 in 12 patients is readmitted to the hospital within 30 days.
- Up to 59% of readmissions are preventable with clearer support after discharge.
- Patient Navigator programs have shown reductions in 30-day readmissions by 7.3% to 39% in high-risk groups.
Families who face language, cultural, or system-navigation challenges often struggle most during these transitions. Liora Ministry™ helps them stay informed, prepared, and connected as they move through the healthcare system.
What Liora Ministry Does
Liora Ministry™ is a nurse-led initiative that supports older adults, caregivers, and newcomers during hospital stays and as they return home.
We help families:
- understand what happens next
- know who to contact for questions or concerns
- stay connected across different parts of the healthcare system
- feel supported during stressful health moments
Our goal is simple: to make care safer, clearer, and easier to navigate.
Expanding Our Education Initiatives
We began by creating short educational videos that families can watch and share easily.
Now, we're expanding our education work to reach more people — including small community seminars and workshops.
Why Education?
Short videos, simple printouts, and community sessions allow us to reach more families in ways that are:
- easy to understand
- easy to share
- available when families need them most
This helps important health information spread quickly — especially to people who are most at risk of falling through the cracks.
