The Swing Bed service at Cleveland Area Hospital offers extended recovery when you need it. A swing bed doesn’t swing physically, but it swings in the way Medicare reimburses for the care provided to the patient.
A patient being treated for an acute condition can remain in the hospital for
follow-up care rather than be discharged to home when they are not quite ready or discharged to the nursing home when they really only need care for a few more days or weeks. The patient stays in the same bed, receives the same care, but the services are billed differently. Or the patient may have been hospitalized in a facility away from home and be transferred back to their local hospital for their swing bed stay.
