Post-ICU care in Cleveland: LTAC vs. skilled nursing | Download PDF guide
Grace Hospital serves patients referred from acute care hospitals across Cleveland, Tremont, Cuyahoga County, and Northeast Ohio, including transfers from University Hospitals, MetroHealth, Cleveland Clinic affiliates, Elyria Memorial, and surrounding regional hospitals.
A long term acute care hospital provides hospital-level care for patients who need extended recovery—typically 25–30 days—while treating ventilator dependence, complex wounds, organ transplant recovery, and other medically complex conditions.
Patients who are too complex for skilled nursing but no longer need ICU-level short-stay care are ideal LTAC candidates. Referring physicians, case managers, and families across Northeast Ohio send ventilator, wound care, and post-ICU patients to Grace Hospital.
Call 216-687-1500 or use our online patient referral form. A clinical liaison will follow up to coordinate admission for LTAC placement in Cleveland.
In March 2002, The Joint Commission, together with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), launched a national campaign to urge patients to take a role in preventing health care errors by becoming active, involved and informed participants on the health care team.
The program features brochures, posters and buttons on a variety of patient safety topics. Speak Up TM encourages the public to:
Speak up if you have questions or concerns, and if you don't understand, ask again. It's your body and you have a right to know.
Pay attention to the care you are receiving. Make sure you're getting the right treatments and medications by the right health care professionals. Don't assume anything.
Educate yourself about your diagnosis, the medical tests you are undergoing, and your treatment plan.
Ask a trusted family member or friend to be your advocate.
Know what medications you take and why you take them. Medication errors are the most common health care errors.
Use a hospital, clinic, surgery center, or other type of health care organization that has undergone a rigorous on-site evaluation against established state-of-the-art quality and safety standards, such as that provided by Joint Commission.
Participate in all decisions about your treatment. You are the center of the health care team.
Our mission is to serve as a center for excellence in the provision of specialized health care services and comfort for patients and families coping with catastrophic illness and injury.
