Virginia Beach, Va. – Legacy Care is partnering with multiple skilled nursing facilities across the MidAtlantic, many of which are facing severe staffing shortages and other post-pandemic challenges.
Despite these challenges, our physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioner teams helped our facility partners reduce unplanned readmissions in numerous facilities. In one facility, our teams drove unplanned readmissions 52% below the national average.
“Our low readmission rates demonstrate Legacy Care’s commitment to quality patient care,” said Danny Felty, MD, Legacy Care’s Chief Medical Officer. “Together with our skilled nursing facility partners, we have driven positive patient outcomes and improved key quality metrics. We’re still recovering from the pandemic in post-acute care, but there are positive trends we’re seeing every week.”
