Short term care is often advised when individuals are ready to be discharged from the hospital but still have specialized care needs. Transitioning home with the proper care is extremely beneficial to the recovery process because it provides the support of trusted professionals at a time when meeting your medical needs can be critical.

My physical therapist I had 4 weeks after my knee replacement surgery was more than wonderful! She was never late so I always knew when to expect her. She taught me so many things about my knee surgery, medications and recovery. I am doing well today, 6 weeks after surgery because of her knowledge, kindness and caring. Thank you so much!
