How much monitoring happens at a Skilled Nursing Rehabilitation Facility?

When a patient discharges from a hospital to a skilled nursing facility, the patient should be stable enough for less frequent monitoring.

The frequency that each patient will be monitored depends on the individual care plan, the doctors orders, and the policies of each individual skilled nursing facility.

Family members and additional care-givers can often be leveraged in order to monitor patients as often as they wish. There are typically outside services that can provide monitoring services.
