The Transitional Rehabilitation Units (TRUs) at Canterbury Place provide short stay rehabilitation designed to meet the needs of patients being discharged from the hospital but who are not quite ready to return home.
Board-certified physicians and specialty-trained therapists help patients recover from surgery, accidents, and illness, and return home more quickly.
The Heart and Vascular Institute Transitional Rehabilitation Unit (HVI-TRU) is a partnership between UPMC Senior Communities and UPMC's Heart and Vascular Institute and is housed on the second floor of Canterbury Place. The HVI-TRU is tailored to complex cardiology and cardiac surgical patients in need of short-stay rehabilitation.
The TRUs at Canterbury Place:
- Promote a safe and timely transition for short term rehab patients as they progress towards their discharge home
- Provide individual patient focused rehabilitation services
- Promote quality care and provides continuity of treatment plans
- Promote appropriate utilization of patients’ health care benefits
