TRANSITIONAL CARE SERVICES

Established as a skilled nursing facility, Kin On Health Care Center has continued to provide the community with high quality long-term care over the years. Kin On recognizes the importance to proactively evolve its services with the changing needs of the community. To meet the transitional needs of individuals discharged from the hospital, Kin On has implemented a short-term rehabilitation program called Transitional (Short-Term) Care Services.

Our Commitment

Our goal is to provide short-term rehabilitative and special care services to individuals discharged from the hospital so they can successfully transition back to the community  or other care settings. The length of stay is usually a few weeks.

Our Philosophy of Care

Kin On strives to provide a respectful, culturally sensitive and resident-centered environment to facilitate the recuperation of the resident. Services and plan of care are coordinated and provided by a team of professionals to meet the unique individual needs of each resident.

Services Include:

• Skilled Nursing
• Respite Care
• Hospice Care
• Occupational Therapy
• Physical Therapy
• Speech Therapy
• Intravenous Therapy
• Oxygen Therapy
• Enteral Feeding
• Special Diet
• Clinical Social Service
• Therapeutic Recreational Program

Discharge Planning and Ongoing Support

While the purpose of this program is to provide short-term rehabilitative care, a Social Service Staff will work closely with the client and family members on discharge planning. Staff will also be available to assist in accessing additional in-home services as well as other transitional facilities based on the preferences and needs of the client.
