Swing Bed Program

Patients are not always ready to return home after a hospital stay. They need more time to strengthen and heal with a skilled level of care before they can return to everyday life.

Our short-term rehabilitation program, often called “Swing Bed” is a Medicare Program that allows patients to receive skilled care services at Stephens County Hospital once acute care is no longer required, but the patient continues to need services that cannot be easily provided at home.

Often offered to those recovering from surgery, injury or illness, our specialists offer the highest level of care and compassion to our patients. Our Swing Bed Program provides personalized care plans that allow patients to reach their highest potential for health and independence prior to returning home.
