What Is Short-Term Rehabilitation?

Short-term rehabilitation—or post-acute, transitional care—services are available while you recover from a health event, such as a hospital stay for an illness, injury or surgery. The goal of your short-stay rehabilitation is to regain your strength and relieve pain so you can get back to your home and routine quickly. Post-acute services can be needed at any age and may include:

  • Personalized health plans focused on outcomes.
  • Plans for physical, occupational and/or speech therapy.
  • 24/7 assistance from experienced professionals.
  • Education to enhance your recovery as you return home.

“Rydal Park is special to me because of the relationships I have made with many residents and staff over the 25 years. I enjoy the longitudinal care. The long term relationship with patients/ residents . I want to be there for my patients as they age and theirs needs become greater. I feel privileged to help manage and navigate tough decisions patients have to make as they age”

"I have worked with the older adult population for many years and truly enjoy it. Their life stories and motivation to remain as independent as possible always amaze me. Our goal, as therapists, is to help people achieve their maximum independence and residents at Rydal Park are definitely motivated to do that.”
