For Hospital Discharge Planners & Social Workers

    Your Patients Leave the Hospital. Their Needs Don't.

    Send one link. Give them everything โ€” financial options, legal guidance, housing resources, and community support. Completely free for every family you serve.

    You Have 12 Patients Today. Each One Needs an Hour You Don't Have.

    Discharge planning is one of the most important โ€” and most impossible โ€” jobs in healthcare. You're expected to prepare patients and families for one of the most complex transitions of their lives, in a window that keeps getting shorter.

    They leave scared. Overwhelmed. About to make decisions that will affect the rest of their lives โ€” about money, about care, about housing โ€” with almost no time to think.

    You know what they need. You just can't always be the one to give it to them.

    The Reality

    The average discharge planner serves 15โ€“20 patients per day. The average family needs 8+ hours to navigate long-term care decisions.

    Something has to give โ€” and right now, it's your patients.

    The Solution

    One Free Link That Answers All of It

    LTCareNav is a free, HIPAA compliant long-term care navigation platform built specifically to support hospital discharge planning and care transitions. You send one personal, customized link โ€” tailored to your patient's situation โ€” and your families get immediate, guided access to every resource they need: financial, legal, housing, and community support, organized and explained in plain language.

    No back-and-forth. No callback loops. No family members showing up at the nurses' station because nobody told them where to go.

    Completely free for every family you refer. No apps, no barriers. Just the answers they need โ€” at the exact moment they need them most.

    See Exactly What Your Patients Experience

    The LTCareNav dashboard turns confusion into action. Families don't get a list of links โ€” they get interactive tools that calculate what care actually costs, what they can afford, and what level of care fits their situation today.

    From the same dashboard they connect to vetted financial planners, elder-law attorneys, housing partners, and community organizations we've already screened โ€” so they're not gambling on a Google search at 11 p.m.

    And underneath all of it: plain-language guides on Medicare, Medicaid, VA benefits, in-home care, and facility care that grow with the family โ€” from today's crisis through long-term planning.

    Trusted by Social Workers and Discharge Planners

    Here's what professionals like you are saying.

    "I used to spend 20 minutes on the phone with every family after discharge just explaining the basics โ€” Medicare, Medicaid, what comes next. Now I send the LTCareNav link before they leave and those calls have almost stopped. The families who do call are better informed and easier to help."

    D.R.

    MSW, Hospital Discharge Planner

    "We had a patient whose family was terrified about money and had no idea their father might qualify for VA benefits. LTCareNav walked them through all of it. I didn't find out until the daughter called to thank me. That's the kind of outcome I got into this work for."

    M.T.

    LCSW, Senior Care Social Worker

    "The hardest part of my job is knowing what families need and not having the time to give it to them. LTCareNav fills that gap. It's like having a knowledgeable colleague available to every family, around the clock. And the fact that it's free for families makes it a no-brainer to recommend."

    J.K.

    MSW, Care Transitions Coordinator

    "I was skeptical at first โ€” we've all seen tools that promise a lot and deliver a pamphlet. LTCareNav is different. It actually guides families through decisions, not just information. Two of my patients avoided unnecessary nursing home placements because their families finally understood home care options. That's a real outcome."

    Families Are Drowning in Questions โ€” and Turning to You for Answers

    Your phone keeps ringing because they have nowhere else to turn. Tap any question below for context โ€” and articles you can share.

    Most families assume Medicare covers long-term care. When they discover it doesn't โ€” or that it stops after 100 days โ€” panic sets in. And they call you.

    Medicaid spend-down, private pay, long-term care insurance, VA benefits โ€” families don't know where to start. They need real guidance, not a pamphlet.

    Skilled nursing, assisted living, memory care, home health โ€” the differences are enormous and the stakes are high. Families are making $8,000-a-month decisions with no real framework.

    Power of attorney, advance directives, guardianship โ€” the legal side of a care crisis is urgent and routinely ignored until it becomes a serious problem.

    Nonprofits, state programs, Area Agencies on Aging, community services โ€” most families have no idea what exists or how to access it.
