Akut- und Übergangspflege (AÜP) – kantonale Information

Checked in August 2026

What this service does for you

The official information page of the Canton of Schwyz explains acute and transitional care: a maximum of 14 days of care after a hospital stay, ordered by a hospital doctor before discharge. It can be provided at home by a contracted Spitex or in a nursing home on the cantonal nursing home list. There is a daily fee of CHF 168.– for accommodation and meals. For stroke patients who cannot go directly to rehab or home after the acute phase, this is the main tool to bridge the gap.
