General Info

At discharge from the hospital, your Ascension St. Vincent's care coordinator in Jacksonville, Florida, may tell you about an outpatient Transitional Care Unit that is recommended for your initial care immediately after hospitalization. The transitional care team does not take the place of your primary care doctor and is offered as part of Ascension St. Vincent's ''Continuum of Care'' services. During the initial weeks after surgery or a procedure, some patients with complex health conditions are more medically vulnerable. Our clinic delivers personalized, compassionate care for many conditions, including COPD, heart failure, recent heart or lung surgery or a serious respiratory illness.
