UC Health will close the Daniel Drake Center for Post-Acute Care by the fall, citing a strategic shift to expand high-demand services and improve care access. The decision comes as part of a broader initiative to reallocate resources and enhance the quality of care offered to patients.
The closure of the center will affect numerous patients who rely on its services for rehabilitation and recovery. However, UC Health is committed to ensuring a smooth transition for these individuals, with plans to relocate essential services to other facilities within their network. The organization emphasizes that this move is aimed at better meeting the evolving healthcare needs of the community.
As part of the transition, UC Health will provide support and guidance to patients and their families to help them navigate the changes. The healthcare provider reassures the community that it remains dedicated to delivering high-quality care and addressing the growing demands for various health services.
