What this service does for you
In Ticino, acute and transitional care is called "cure acute transitorie" (CAT). It offers a care home place directly after discharge from the hospital, for a maximum of 14 days, for people of AHV age. If you need more time after that, you can move to a "soggiorno terapeutico temporaneo" (STT) if ordered by the care home management. However, the total stay is never longer than 28 days including CAT. The daily rate of 50 francs covers care and accommodation. This is a reasonable amount, considering how expensive an improvised solution would otherwise be.
