Transitional Care
Heal faster, close to home
Following a hospital stay due to illness, injury, or surgery, some of us need more recovery time.
When you still need time to heal or rehabilitate, our Transitional Care team is here for you.
As a Critical Access Hospital, only Mee Memorial--in all of Monterey County--offers a unique opportunity to recover from injury or hospitalization right here in your community.
No matter where you had your hospital stay, you can continue your recovery at Mee Memorial, close to family, with our family of caregivers.
Skilled Nursing
Our location enables us to provide resources that others can’t. We also have an entire hospital just one floor below our facility. Our patients have access to ‘round-the-clock acute care, because time is of the essence when a patient needs expedient medical care. ER physicians and Hospitalists are on-site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We also have a full-time Infection Preventionist.
Our skilled nursing unit has:
- Top quality scores, listed in Best Nursing Homes of 2025 by US News, due to nurse/resident staffing, fewer resident ED visits, and sustained ability for self-care.
- 5-Star Medicare rating
- Excellent nurse-to-patient ratios
- Caring, attentive, highly-trained staff, and Spanish-speaking assistance
Physical and Occupational Therapy
Our skilled Rehabilitation Services team can help you bounce back. Our talented therapists are capable of treating a diverse range of patients, from infants to seniors and all those in between. We are very passionate healers and feel fortunate to have a part in our patients’ recovery process. Our goal is to help build strength, balance, and restore functional abilities for those in need after a hospital stay, and help you return home safer and stronger.
IV Therapy
For those who still need Intravenous Therapy after a stay in the hospital, recovering at home isn’t easy. IV therapy delivers fluids, medications, nutrients, or blood for rapid absorption and is administered by our nursing staff.
