Short-Term Rehabilitation

Edgerton Hospital Short-Term Rehabilitation

After a hospital stay, not everyone has the ability or strength to return to everyday living. That’s why Edgerton Hospital designed our short-term rehab program (also known as swing bed) to help facilitate a smooth transition between acute care and returning home, or to other living arrangements.

If you need more time to recover after an illness, injury or surgery, Edgerton Hospital offers 24-hour skilled nursing care and daily physical, occupational, speech therapy—all in one location.

Amenities:

Private patient rooms
Windows that open
Healing Garden for recovery
Personalized meals from our executive chef
Low nurse to patient ratio

This program generally qualifies for Medicare coverage under the following conditions:

Your inpatient rehab care must be related to a three day (or more) qualifying stay in an acute care setting within the past 30 days.
You must need skilled nursing or skilled rehabilitative services on a daily basis that are complex enough to need the supervision of professional or technical personnel.

Even if your surgery or hospital stay was at a different facility, you can transfer to Edgerton Hospital for short-term rehabilitation, close to home. To find out if short-term rehab/swing bed is right for you or your loved one, please contact Patient & Family Services at:
