A swing bed is a service that rural hospitals and Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs) with a Medicare provider agreement provide that allows a patient to transition from acute care to Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) care without leaving the hospital. On this week’s podcast, Amber Young, Care Coordinator, discusses the swing bed program available at CCMH and steps individuals should take if they are looking for transitional care.
