For short-term rehabilitation, patients are admitted to the facility with the ultimate goal of getting home safely and quickly. With that goal in mind, discharge planning begins on day one of the stays. Elim Park’s initial process includes reviewing physician’s orders during medication reconciliation, implementing an individualized baseline care plan, establishing goals, and identifying barriers. During the stay, our collaborative team of therapists and nursing staff will be assisting with activities of daily living while the patient is working towards their discharge goals. Prior to discharge, supportive care services such as outpatient therapy or homecare services are set up for them to continue therapy and nursing care while they’re transitioning back home.
