Skilled Nursing Facilities

State-of-the-Art Skilled Nursing Facilities Ease Transition

Rehabilitation Services at University Hospitals offers skilled nursing facilities with the benefit of rehabilitation therapies, also called swing beds, to provide patients a comfortable transition between their hospital stay and home. Swing-bed facilities have the ability to provide patients with skilled nursing care once acute medical care is no longer needed. A benefit of swing bed care is that it does not require relocation after hospitalization. A skilled nursing facility with swing beds may be an option for patients who require:

• IV therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Physical therapy
• Care while recovering from surgery
• Wound care

In addition to offering in-house advanced rehabilitation therapies to speed recovery, each private room at our skilled nursing facilities is furnished and decorated to remind patients of home, including:

• Home-like amenities
• Relaxed atmosphere
• Telephone
• Television

Patients at our skilled nursing faciltiies are encouraged to wear loose-fitting clothes, as they would dress at home. We offer at-home comfort and care with advanced medical and rehabilitative services.
