Short Term Care

A Short-Term Stay

Sometimes illness or injury necessitates a brief stay for skilled nursing care or therapy services before returning to independent living.


So how do we define a “short” stay?

Atlantic Rehabilitation

At times a short stay encompasses a specific course of treatment; for example, a 2-week course of antibiotics or a month until weight bearing status is restored after knee replacement surgery. Your specific length of stay will vary depending on your unique goals and medical needs, so we make sure your plan of care and treatment is just as individual as you are.


If you’re one of many people who need rehabilitation following hospitalization, we provide a program designed especially with you in mind. Our clinical services include:


  • Physical, occupational, and speech therapy
  • Specialty care for patients recovering from stroke, heart attack, fractures, surgeries, and other illnesses
  • Injuries and disabilities
  • Wound care management
  • Orthopedic care

Our quiet, comfortable, therapy suites serve as your home-away-from-home. Each room is tastefully decorated with a coordinated comforter and window treatment, a sitting area with a loveseat and a chair, and a flat-screen TV.


As soon as you’re admitted, the discharge process begins to ensure that you not only get all the care and therapy you need now, but that your transition home will be smooth and successful.


Fit to Home

Our fit to home program benefits those individuals needing a 7-10 short-term stay. Each individual is evaluated for rehabilitative services and scorecards will be utilized so each person or loved one can see the progress they are making on the road to recovery. Several different amenities are offered throughout your stay such as, spa day with a hair cut, manicure, pedicure or massage.


Respite Care

Are you going out of town for the holidays or on summer vacation?


Do you need a break but worry about the care, comfort, and safety of your loved one while you’re away?


Respite care may be the answer! Your loved one is admitted on a temporary basis for round-the-clock nursing care, engaging activities and wholesome meals and snacks. So whether you’re going out-of-town for several weeks, or just taking a breather from the hectic pace of daily life, you can relax and enjoy a respite.
