At South Sunflower County Hospital, our Swing Bed Unit provides skilled care for patients who require ongoing hospital care as they transition from acute care back to their own home. This allows the patient to transfer to SSCH where they can be closer to their home, family, and friends.
Our rehabilitation team offers an individualized, hands-on approach to providing physical, occupational, and speech therapy services. We also have a newly renovated hospital and therapy gym with state-of-the-art equipment. These therapy services are offered to patients recovering from joint surgeries, recent strokes, and/or prolonged hospital stays that have left them deconditioned. All patient rooms are private. No local doctor is needed for a referral to be made.
