Transitional Care
Transitional Care is provided in Transition Care Units (TCU) and River Ridge Transition Care Environment (TCE).
A transitional care facility is a temporary place where rehabilitation or other medical care is provided before going home or to a nursing home or 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.
If a patient's discharge to a TCU was delayed by more than a day then also code Awaiting/delayed transfer to transitional care facility.
