REHABILITATION
What is “Short Stay Rehabilitation�
Short Stay rehab is designed to assist people who either are; in the hospital, or who have returned home from the hospital but need more time to recuperate. Reservations may be made in advance when scheduling surgery just prior to leaving the hospital.
You can also make reservations after you return home from the hospital and realize that you may need more help.
Maplewood – Short Term Rehabilitation Neighborhood
The Cortland Care Center began helping individuals return home from our health care center in 1990. Today, Maplewood, the 15-bed short-term rehabilitation unit, has assisted many community members in meeting their rehabilitative goals and subsequent discharge from our health care center.
Maplewood provides experienced rehabilitative care for most clinical needs including but not limited to: orthopedic, joint replacement, amputations, strokes, cardiac and wound care.
