Getting Back on Track
Transitions Customized Solution Comes to United Methodist Communities
Were you recently discharged from a hospital or rehab facility and faced a dilemma because you didn’t feel quite ready to return home or did so and found you needed additional support? United Methodist Communities in Collingswood, Ocean City, and Pitman now offer Transitions, a customized solution for these instances.
A Transitions stay may last between one and six weeks. Similar to traditional rehabilitation settings, Transitions focuses on people requiring recovery, reconditioning and clinical monitoring.
Typical residents need observation for new clinical situations such as medications, therapies and devices; rehabilitation to regain skills to manage living at home; extra support to gain confidence before returning home; time to allow the implementation of support structures at home; and further stabilization.
Robbie Voloshin, corporate director of marketing, reports, “This short term program works toward getting people back home safely.”
Guests receive services in Transitions’ neighborhood of private, fully-furnished, home-like apartments. While the environment is less restrictive, it continues to support overall recovery and wellness. The care and services include rehabilitation, social engagement, wellness programming, home environment assessments, and transitional care to home follow-up.
Meals, laundry and housekeeping; transportation; community life programming; social work, clinical and aide services; and SeniorFITness are included in the daily rate. Contact United Methodist Communities at Collingswood, United Methodist Communities at Pitman, or United Methodist Communities at The Shores for more information regarding Transitions or other services.
