Swing Bed Program

At Neosho Memorial Regional Medical Center (NMRMC), our Swing Bed Program offers skilled nursing care within a hospital setting, ensuring patients receive the support they need to recover and transition to the next stage of care. This program provides a unique opportunity for patients to access advanced medical resources and compassionate care while staying close to home in Chanute, KS. 

What Is the Swing Bed Program?

The Swing Bed Program is designed for patients who require skilled nursing care but no longer need acute hospital care. The term "swing bed" refers to a shift in Medicare classification, not a change in the patient’s location or type of bed. This program allows patients to remain in the hospital while receiving specialized care for their recovery. 

Who Can Benefit?

The Swing Bed Program is ideal for patients who need: 

• Rehabilitation after surgery or illness. 
• IV therapy or wound care. 
• Physical, occupational, or speech therapy. 
• Post-stroke care or other recovery support. 
• Assistance with managing chronic conditions.
