How to Support Your Loved One

We believe support from family and friends is a critical component of recovery. Whether your loved one can respond to you or not, you can help keep their spirits up by simply being there. We encourage visits as often as possible and invite you to bring family pictures, letters, and cherished personal items to surround your loved one with positivity.

Information such as visitation policies, parking, and cafeteria hours are included below for your convenience. If you have any questions after reviewing this page, please give us a call!

Family Involvement

At Kindred Hospitals, we take an interdisciplinary approach to care planning and we believe family members are an important part of that team. At your request, we can hold family meetings with your loved one’s care team to discuss progress, provide education on a treatment plan, or review the discharge plan in preparation for post-hospital life. Our staff is ready to make your experience with us as pleasant and inclusive as possible. Please ask a case manager if you would like to schedule one of these discussions.
