Our Recuperative Care Model
Recuperative care — also called medical respite — is a level of care that sits between hospital discharge and fully independent living. It is more than housing and less than skilled nursing: a staffed recovery environment where participants receive the medical oversight, case management, and daily support that makes safe discharge possible for people who cannot recover safely on their own.
At Hammock Homes, this means direct communication with referring partners throughout the placement — consistent updates, prompt response to clinical questions, and clear documentation of each participant’s progress toward discharge readiness.
Each participant in our Vacaville recuperative care program receives:
- A staffed recovery environment with daily oversight and health assessments
- Medical care coordination, including medication management and specialist referrals
- Case management to support benefits enrollment and discharge planning
