From Limited Mobility to Renewed Independence

After a health event left Marilyn unable to move her right leg, she turned to the Pershing Health System Swing Bed program for rehabilitation and recovery.

With personalized therapy, encouragement and around-the-clock skilled nursing care, Marilyn made remarkable progress in just 12 days. She regained her ability to walk with a walker, became more independent and felt stronger each day.

Reflecting on her experience, Marilyn shared:

“It’s a great place if you need therapy. The staff is great, and they really prepare you to go home. When I arrived, I could barely move my right leg. In 12 short days, I’m up walking with a walker, I’m self-sufficient, and feeling much stronger. Everyone—from the nurses to the therapy team—encouraged me every step of the way. They didn’t just treat me like a patient, they treated me like family.” — Marilyn, PHS Swing Bed Patient
