Transitional Care Unit
When you leave the hospital, you may not be strong enough to care for yourself at home. Your care team may recommend a stay in a Transitional Care Unit. The Transitional Care Unit (TCU) or short-term rehabilitation is skilled nursing care that is available in a licensed nursing community, usually after a hospital stay. TCUs are special units that provide short-term therapy and medical care. TCUs can help bridge the gap between hospital care and returning home.

The TCU at Aurora on France features three 21 bed pods that specialize in Cardio, Orthopedics and Medical-Surgical.  Aurora has nurse practitioners and physicians rounding seven days a week, speech, occupational and physical therapists staffing the therapy gym seven days a week as well as ceiling lifts located throughout the therapy gym to help with rehabilitation.  Aurora on France TCU has a state of the art call light system to ensure we are responding to the needs of our clients on a timely basis.
