Health Tips & Info

Post-Acute Care facilities provide services to patients to regain their strength and return home. Patients receive these services after hospitalization for surgery, injury, or illness. This acts as a bridge between the hospital and the next steps to recovery. So, why choose Post-Acute Care? Well, those who choose Post-Acute Care when discharged after being hospitalized are less likely to be re-admitted to the hospital. These results are possible due to the short-term rehabilitation goals set for patients to meet before discharge. Some of the services provided at a Post-Acute Care facility include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and respiratory therapy.

Acute Care?

Acute care is simply an active treatment for short-term needs. In contrast, long-term care is for patients who need assistance to function in their daily lives. Practitioners try to make this care fit seamlessly into a patient’s routine. Long-term care is often performed in a group home, nursing home, or in a person’s residence. Acute care is often performed in a hospital setting or doctor’s office for quick, urgent treatment.
