What this service does for you
If it is not yet clear after leaving the hospital whether a return home is possible, acute and transitional care in a nursing home can be prescribed for a maximum of 14 days. The health insurance pays a large part of the care costs. This cantonal office provides information about the requirements, the prescription by the hospital doctor, and which nursing homes in the canton of St. Gallen offer these beds.
