What Are Recovery Stays?

Sometimes, you need a place to recover that isn’t your home, either because it’s too inaccessible or because you just need some more help before you’re ready to be on your own after a procedure. Heritage Communities offers short-term recovery stays for this exact situation. Whether you or your loved one has just been discharged but still needs time to slowly recover following a major medical event, you can comfortably get your strength back under our care. You’ll have access to meals, laundry, and more services and can participate in our social events.
