What is Short-Term Rehabilitation?

At Havenwood Heritage Heights, our short-term rehabilitation program offers skilled nursing services and therapeutic services that are designed to maximize physical and cognitive abilities with the goal of restoring lost functional capacity. In many cases, short-term rehabilitation bridges the gap from hospital to home, helping older adults heal comfortably and safely.

From the moment you arrive at our Health Services Center, we are working to get you back to doing what you love most by offering 24-hour medical care and a variety of individualized therapies.

Occupational therapy

Therapy may include evaluations and treatment for individuals experiencing a decline in their functional abilities such as eating, bathing, dressing, and meal preparation. Functional cognitive assessments also help with evaluating strengths and weaknesses in abilities such as financial management, medication management, and household management. Additional areas of treatment may include splinting, positioning, pressure relief, urinary incontinence treatment, and pain management.

Intravenous therapy

Intravenous therapy, or IV therapy, is a medical technique that delivers medicine, fluids and nutrition to patients who are suffering from problems like dehydration or vitamin deficiency.

Speech therapy

A Speech-Language Pathologist performs evaluations and treatment to individuals experiencing difficulties with dysphagia/swallowing difficulties, and cognitive-communication which includes speech and/or communication abilities as well as your brain’s role and function in communication and executive function skills.

Who Needs Short-Term Rehabilitation?

You may turn to short-term rehabilitation if you are ready to leave the hospital after an injury, illness or surgery, but don’t feel completely comfortable resuming your normal routine. In these cases, our Health Services Center provides the highest level of quality care in a comfortable environment, ensuring that patients can safely return home. Your medical provider may also recommend short-term rehabilitation after a stroke, cardiac event, prolonged illness or orthopedic surgery. However, it is important to note that Medicare will only cover the cost of short-term rehabilitation after an inpatient stay of at least three consecutive days with a qualifying diagnosis.

Cost of Short-Term Rehabilitation

The cost of short-term rehabilitation can be intimidating. However, how much you pay out-of-pocket depends on medication costs, therapy charges and other individual circumstances. At Havenwood Heritage Heights, you can expect to pay set rate for a semi-private room or private room.

These rates vary based on the floor; 1st floor semi private is $321 per day, private $371 per day and renovated private $391 per day.  On Melody Lane the rates are; semi private $332 and private $384. This flat fee affords access to a variety of amenities and services including dining options, housekeeping, security, events and activities, specialized care and more.   

It is important to remember that insurance coverage will influence cost. If you transition to short-term rehabilitation after a qualifying hospital stay, your coverage will depend on your need for continued skilled nursing services.
