You may need extra care after a hospital stay before you are ready to return home. When you’ve had a surgery, injury or illness, you’ll get the best care in the best environment at The Deery Suites, opened in June 2018.
Each suite offers a spacious, private bedroom with attached private bathroom and walk-in shower. The home design includes living room, den, outdoor access and an open kitchen, where you’ll enjoy the freshly prepared meals and snacks.
Your doctor will work with our team to determine your health goals during your short-term stay at The Deery Suites. A care plan is created to help meet those goals, and assessments are performed along the way.
The Deery Suites therapists use innovative technologies to help you get better, faster.

Each day finds something new on the calendar and at least two options for you. You can take a walk outside (even in a wheelchair) or do exercises while seated. Plant flowers, write poetry or create crafts. Enjoy music from hymn sings to drum circles. Test your brain power with trivia and word games. Take part in beanbag baseball or Wii bowling. Play games such as darts, 500, Farkle and bingo. Munch on popcorn while watching a movie. You are always welcome and encouraged to join, but you are free to do as much or as little as you’d like.

Until your health goals are reached. Most of our stays average two to three weeks; Medicare may cover up to 100 days during a benefit period, but that depends on your condition, any hospital stays and how much skilled care has already been received. We can help you determine what benefits you are entitled to and what coverage Medicare will provide.

It depends on the policy; we will be happy to review it with you and determine what your policy covers.

We accept private pay, Medicare and some Medicaid, as well as long-term care insurance policies that provide for nursing care. Our financial resources liaison is happy to work with you.
