The Short-Stay and Rehabilitation Center at Lakeshore is for patients who are seriously ill yet medically stable and no longer in need of acute hospital services. Common reasons for admission to the Subacute Center include recovering from surgery, such as a hip or shoulder replacement. Patients receive highly skilled nursing/rehabilitation care and technologically advanced therapies.

Our services include:

• 24-hour Nursing Care
• Chaplaincy
  
• Social Services
  
• Rehabilitative Services
  • Occupational Therapy
  • Physical Therapy
  • Speech Therapy
    
• Nutritional Services - Supervised by a Registered Dietician.
  
• Therapeutic Recreation
• Housekeeping
• Laundry
• Volunteer Services/Auxiliary
• Full Service Salon*
• In-room Telephone*
• Cable TV*

* Additional charges applied.

As patients regain strength through therapy, the goal is for them to return to some level of independent living upon discharge. Patients can stay in the Subacute Center for up to 100 days. If the time period has lapsed but the patient still needs skilled nursing care, the patient will be transferred to an alternate setting as appropriate.

People who will be having surgery and in need of subacute care may call JoAnn Spielman at (218) 625-8293 or email JoAnnSpielman@ecumen.org for more information.
