After Your Stay at UPMC Altoona

Our patients often need additional resources after leaving the hospital. Every patient has a right to a discharge plan, and at UPMC Altoona, our Case Management Department is available to help. Your doctor or another member of your care team may refer you to Case Management for assistance, or you can contact a member of the department directly by calling 814-889-2256.

Not all patients can return home right away after leaving UPMC Altoona.

Should you need more care after your stay with us, someone from our case management department will meet with you to discuss your choices and preferences for:

Skilled nursing care
Assisted living services
Inpatient rehab services
Outpatient rehab services

A representative from case management can help you connect with a post-acute care liaison who can assist you with choices in:

Home care services to provide follow-up care in your home after your stay at UPMC Altoona
Medical equipment services for the delivery and set-up of wheelchairs, special bathroom supplies, hospital beds, and other medical equipment that may be necessary or helpful during your recovery
