Leaving hospital and becoming homeless
Before you leave hospital, tell the nursing staff about your situation so they are aware that you will be homeless when you are discharged. They will ask the hospital discharge team to help if they can, and they may refer you to us.
We will assess your situation. If you fall into a priority need category, you may be offered temporary accommodation while your application is assessed.
We have a service that supports vulnerable people after they leave hospital. Find out more about going home after hospital discharge (Homesafe Plus).
If you have a home which needs to be adapted, the hospital should refer you to us for a Disabled Facilities Grant. Find out more about home adaptations to stay independent (Homelink).
