Doctors may advise inpatient rehabilitation, often referred to as post-acute care or medical rehabilitative care, following illness, injury, or surgery. Such short-term rehabilitation programs are aimed at speeding up recovery. These programs provide a personalized plan crafted based on an individual's specific needs and goals after an initial assessment. This plan might involve various therapy sessions.
"Rehab programs are designed to get you back home as soon as possible so you can regain your independence," state experts. The stay during short-term rehabilitation offers several benefits.
24/7 medical and personal care make up a crucial part of the rehabilitation process. "You’ll receive around-the-clock medical supervision and support to ensure your recovery progresses smoothly," the specialists explain. Facilities include monitoring medication, providing access to a gym, offering daily activity assistance, and serving meals tailored to dietary requirements.
Safety and peace of mind are priorities during the recovery journey. "Depending on your needs, you can get assistance moving from your room around the facility to mitigate falls and re-injury," assure health professionals. Set within a secured environment, individuals can focus on healing without home-related risks.
Rest and recreation are supported through private rooms, nutritious meals, and social activities, contributing to positive recovery. "Our short-term rehab centers offer private rooms, nutritious meals, social activities, and amenities," the statement mentions. Social connections are bolstered through group activities and opportunities to interact with peers.
Facilities aim for a quick return home by enabling rapid recovery with one to four weeks of intensive support. "Short-term rehab centers help you recover faster by providing one to four weeks of intensive, personalized support," says the therapy team. Therapists work alongside patients to ensure confidence in managing daily life post-rehabilitation.
Transition to Home programs serve as an alternative, helping individuals not fully ready for independent life post-hospital or rehab discharge. "After a hospital or rehabilitation discharge, you’re sent home, but sometimes, you aren’t quite ready to live independently again," medics remark. Such programs involve a personalized plan tailored to an individual’s abilities.
Sub-acute rehabilitation services are available at Park Place Elmhurst and Victorian Village. Transition to Home services are offered at Park Place of St. John and Royal Atrium Inn.
