Upon discharge from the hospital with orders for skilled care, he or she will be admitted to the rehabilitation or skilled care wing. Rehabilitation stays usually range from fourteen to one hundred days. An average length of stay is forty-seven days. During this time the patient’s room and board, medications, meals, x-rays, laboratory tests and physician visits are covered by Medicare and/or supplemental insurance. There are usually no out-of-pocket expenses.
Your loved one will receive up to three hours of therapy per day and twenty-four hour nursing supervision. The patient’s primary physician will follow the patient at Princeton Place. She or he must be seen once every thirty days.
Upon discharge back into the community, our therapists will do a home evaluation to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible.
