Hospital to Home Program
About Our Hospital to Home Program in Buzzards Bay
Leaving a hospital or rehab can be scary, and it can make both you and your loved one feel anxious about what comes next. Your loved one may still be healing, and suddenly, there is no care team down the hall. For families in Buzzards Bay and Barnstable County, TLC Private Home Care’s Hospital to Home Program was built exactly for this moment.
Founded in memory of co-owner Jolene Cicchese, RN’s son, Lyndon, who passed away on December 8, 2018, this program reflects the organization’s deep commitment to bringing joy, laughter, and genuine care to every client. It is not just a service, it is a mission rooted in personal experience and real love for the people we serve.
How can transitional care services in Buzzards Bay help your family?
The Hospital to Home Program is run entirely by nursing, not just a standard caregiver, but a skilled care team that understands what your loved one has just been through. When our team steps in before discharge, families no longer have to piece together a care plan on their own.
Let our nurses and care team ease the transition home.
Avoid the stress of figuring out medications, equipment, and home setup on your own.
Get the care your loved one needs from the very first day back home.

How Our Hospital-to-Home Program in Buzzards Bay & Barnstable County Works
We meet the nurses, therapists, and case managers who have been providing care throughout their stay. This gives our care team the full picture needed to build the right care plan from day one.
Here is what we gather before your loved one comes home:
Medications taken during the hospital or rehab stay.
Any infections, limited mobility, or physical care needs.
Test results and documentation supporting their stay in the facility.
Direct input from the entire care team about your loved one as a whole person.
What happens on the day my loved one comes home?
On discharge day, a separate in-home care assessment is completed. A caregiver can be assigned that very same day, so there is no waiting period when your loved one needs support most.
Prescriptions can be picked up and pre-filled on the day of discharge.
The home is checked for all necessary equipment to support a safe recovery.
A personalized care plan is put in place immediately.
Streamlined support services are in place before your loved one settles back in.
