Sub-Acute Hospital Services
Brits Sub-Acute Services
We provide a caring and controlled environment with 24-hour nursing care.
Sub-Acute Facilities
Sub-acute facilities merge the technology of a hospital with skilled nursing but do not have theatres or high-intensity wards, resulting in more cost-effective services whilst maintaining the quality of care.
Benefits of sub-acute care include but are not limited to:
- Sub-acute care is more cost-effective than extended acute hospital stay;
- Medical aid support sub-acute facilities;
- Encourage patient recovery and ability to achieve functional independence;
- Facilitates and promotes the healing process;
- Sub-acute care is more personalised.
