Swing Beds
Extended Stay Options
For those older than 65 who may need extended nursing care after illness, we offer what's called "swing bed care." Nurses continue to take care of the patient in his or her same room, although a doctor's daily visit isn't necessary. Medicare pays the cost of this care for some people.
For those younger than 65 who don't qualify for Medicare, or for those patients older than 65 who no longer can qualify for skilled care swing beds, nursing care can be given at a reduced rate in what's called "intermediate care." Patients themselves pay for this care.
