Houston Transitional Care

Houston Transitional Care is a skilled nursing facility in Houston that mainly helps people who are moving from the hospital back to their homes, and it does this by using a team-based approach focused on safety and recovery, which means patients get care from nurses, therapists, and staff all working together so everyone knows what's going on and the right things get done, and folks get these custom care plans that fit their exact needs, whether they need lots of medical support, therapy, or just a little help getting stronger. There's a big, state-of-the-art therapy gym where experts-think licensed physical, occupational, and speech therapists-help folks with exercise and rehab to get back their strength, and there's also a registered dietitian who makes sure meals meet special dietary needs, plus they try to keep people active with a bunch of different activities, and there are community areas, a cafe, a front sitting area for comfort, even on-site salon and barber services if you want your hair done, so it feels a bit more homelike. The building's two stories with 70 private suites, each with its own roomy bathroom, and it's wheelchair accessible and clean, with private rooms for those getting dialysis at the on-site DaVita Dialysis center-so after treatment, folks can heal quietly right there. Houston Transitional Care also offers hospice, respite, and memory care for those who need extra support, and people say the staff is kind, professional, and respectful, with licensed experts available around the clock to help with daily needs and big changes in life. There's transportation, exercise programs, and recreational activities to keep everyone busy and connected, and there's always someone at the front desk to help with questions, plus 24/7 admission support if someone's ready to move in. Folks who need short-term stays or longer-term rehabilitation get help with everything from personal care to therapy, and the staff treat everyone with dignity. The facility has a 4-Star Medicare rating for providing good care, so families can take a virtual photo tour online to see the place for themselves. It's in partnership with Southwest Management District, and Brandy Schuenemann helps manage the office and admissions, making the move a little easier for families and new residents.
