Referral process

How a referral works

  1. Send the profile

    Call or use the form: diagnosis, ADLs, mobility/transfers, meds (insulin?), behaviors, payer and timeline.

  2. We confirm fit

    Usually the same day. If it's not a fit, we'll say so plainly.

  3. Tour or assessment

    Family tours; we complete a care assessment in person or at the hospital/rehab.

  4. Paperwork & move-in

    Physician's order, med list, TB screening and ALTCS authorization if applicable. Then move-in.

What to have ready

  • Face sheet & insurance/ALTCS plan
  • Diagnosis list and history
  • Current medication list
  • Physician's orders
  • Recent notes (hospital/rehab)
  • TB screening
  • POA / guardianship documents
  • DNR / advance directives

Send a referral

No PHI beyond what's needed to check fit. We'll call you back.
