Swing Bed Program




The HHD Swing Bed Program enables you or your loved one to recover here 'at home' after surgery or hospitalization and provides a transition period between hospitalization and your return home.

Remember - you have a right to choose where you will recover.

Many times after surgery or hospitalization, a recuperation and strengthening period is needed before returning home.
Are you getting ready for surgery?
Do you need extra time to increase your strength after a hospital stay?
Do you want to be closer to home while you recover?
