To serve the needs of smaller communities, Medicare has established coverage for “Swing Bed” programs. Swing Bed is a term that Medicare uses to describe a hospital room that can switch from acute care status to skilled care status. The Swing Bed program can help patients prepare for a safe and sustainable return home.
Lost Rivers Medical Center offers a Medicare Swing Bed Program. The Swing Bed Program (also known as Rehab Care Program) provides skilled nursing care and rehabilitation services for patients who no longer need to be in an acute hospital setting, but are not ready to care for themselves at home or their next level of residence. This program also allows residents who have recently experienced an acute hospitalization or surgery to return to our comfortable facility close to home for nursing and rehabilitation for an extended period of time. This may include IV therapy as well as physical therapy. The length of stay in Swing Bed is dependent upon individual patient needs and progress. Swing Bed is not intended for permanent placement.
Some private insurance plans cover Swing Bed services.
What is Telehealth?
Telehealth, also called virtual care, uses technology to connect a patient in one location with a health care provider in a separate location. During the Public Health Emergency patients can see providers from the comfort of their own home. Providers can monitor vital signs like heart rate, blood sugar and oxygen levels in real time. The result is a better quality of life, fewer trips to the emergency department, and patients living on their own at home much longer.
Services?
Clinic Consultations: Patients connect remotely with their primary care provider or a specialist via two-way, audio/video and asynchronous communication. Current specialties include behavioral health, with more to come. The remote visit may also involve a primary care provider, or other health care providers such as Chronic Care Manager for diabetes prevention.
Home Monitoring: Remote patient management uses devices to connect patients in the home with their Chronic Care Manager. The services we currently have for remote patient monitoring include Blood Pressure Cuffs, Scales for weight management and Blood Oximeters, with hopes to expand in the future.
Social Services
Illnesses and hospitalizations can be stressful, daunting and overwhelming. Our social service department at Lost Rivers Medical Center is here to help you with those stresses. Our social services department works closely with your healthcare team and can offer you resources and guidance to help assist you and your family during this already difficult time. Social services can help with the transition of care including home needs and resources, outpatient treatment, and advance directive assistance.
