Transitional Care is provided in Transition Care Units (TCU)s.
A transitional care facility is a temporary place for patients that are waiting for placement into an alternate care setting.
Other medical care and rehabilitation is provided before going home, to a nursing home or to other more permanent placement. This includes Geriatric Rehab.
In the WRHA setting TCUs usually have a defined period of time for the resident's stay to determine most appropriate final discharge destination.
