Family Concerns

Family members may meet with clinical staff at patient conferences, arranged to discuss a loved one’s current condition and progress and to answer questions.Conference time may be scheduled by calling case management.

Post-Hospital Care

When your doctor determines you no longer need the specialized services of our hospital but still require medical care, he or she may discharge you to a skilled nursing facility, a rehabilitation center or to home care. Our case managers will help arrange the services you may need after leaving the hospital.

Medicare and supplemental insurance policies have limited coverage for skilled nursing care and home healthcare. You should check your policies to be certain what services will be covered.
