What is Short-Term Care at Prestige?

Short-term skilled nursing care, also known as post-acute rehabilitation, is additional medical assistance provided to individuals recovering from a surgery, illness, or other type of injury that is expected to improve over a short period of time. At Prestige, our skilled nursing centers accommodate a wide range of care needs to help individuals achieve optimal recovery. A stay at a skilled nursing and rehabilitation center is meant to be a transitional period to help patients recover and return to their independent lifestyles.

When is it Time for Short-Term Care?

Short-term care is often recommended for those who have been hospitalized for either an elective or unplanned procedure or event and require additional care prior to returning home. Our therapy and clinical teams at Prestige work with you to build an Individualized Care Plan based on your preferences and goals to support your path to recovery. No matter your age or ability, our highly skilled healthcare team will work diligently to help you achieve your goals.

Data-Driven Approach to Recovery

Our experienced therapy team uses a data-driven analytical approach to increase positive outcomes utilizing proven measures like Berg Balance Scale (BBS), 2 Minute Walk Test (2MWT), and Functional Reach Test (FRT) and others to dramatically decrease fall risk or rehospitalization and improve overall functional strength. Each person’s individual therapy treatment plan consists of physical therapy, occupational therapy and/or speech therapy.

Occupational Therapy: focuses on achieving independence in activities of daily living, refining motor skills, improving hand and upper extremity function, and bowel/bladder control. Speech Therapy: focuses on improving communication in speaking, problem-solving, reading, writing, and verbal expression along with resolving problems with swallowing. Physical Therapy: focuses on improving functional skills, strength, and mobility.
