Hospital discharge support from Hemma helps ensure a safe and smooth transition from hospital back home. The service is always planned individually according to the client’s needs and wishes, and family members can also be involved if necessary. The support can be provided for a fixed period or for as long as additional help is needed.

Visits are always unhurried and tailored to the client’s situ ...

Do the following

Contact Hemma’s customer service by phone or leave a contact request through our website. We will get back to you no later than the next working day to arrange a free consultation visit.

During the consultation, we will review your needs together and agree on the practical arrangements to ensure that the transition from hospital back home is smooth and safe.

To whom and on what terms

Hospital discharge support is intended for clients who need assistance when returning home after hospital care and for managing daily life.

The service can be provided VAT-exempt if the client has a functional limitation that prevents managing the services independently. Eligibility for VAT exemption does not depend on age but is assessed by a professional during the consultation visit.

The service is eligible for a household tax credit in accordance with the Finnish Tax Administration’s guidelines, if paid privately. Please note that the credit cannot be claimed for the same work if it is covered, for example, by a service voucher. In addition, clients may apply for a service voucher from their wellbeing services county to cover the costs, depending on local practices.
