Subacute Unit
For individuals who no longer require acute hospitalization, but remain medically fragile, Southern California Hospital at Culver City offers high-quality, comprehensive 21-bed inpatient care. Our residents require special services that may include inhalation therapy, tracheotomy care, intravenous tube feeding, or complex wound management care.
The subacute unit has received a maximum 5 out of a 5-star rating (which means “much above average”) for quality measures by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). In addition, Health Services Advisory Group, the Medicare Quality Innovation Network-Quality Improvement Organization for Arizona and California, awarded the unit a Certificate of Achievement for COVID-19 vaccination rates for residents and staff, demonstrating a commitment to protecting the lives. The unit also has successfully remained COVID-free since the beginning of the pandemic.
Due to an acute illness, injury, or disease, subacute residents have complex needs that require skilled, long-term care. The unit provides a comfortable, compassionate environment residents can call home while ensuring 24/7 access to clinical services and rehabilitation. An interdisciplinary subacute care team, which includes physicians, nurses, rehabilitation therapists, social workers, activity directors, and other medical professionals, cares for residents.
