Answer by dragonfire06
Like an actual hospital that has an er and does surgeries and stuff don’t specialize in long term care that would require that length of time. That is more of a hospice or long term medical facility that is set up to care for those type of patients. And if that is the case they have their own rooms that have all the necessary medical equipment.
Answer by Aggie
Skilled Nursing Facility (Rehab)
Long-Term Care Facility
These are generally not located in the hospital but nearby.
Hospice takes care of patients in their home, generally with less than six months left to live. Hospice is not rehab care. They are end-of-life care when the patient is DNR.
