Recuperative Care addresses the gap in health care for the homeless who are going back and forth between hospitals and the streets. Many homeless patients are in a vulnerable place. They are too ill to return to the streets, where their injury or illness is exasperated, but not ill enough to stay in the hospital. What they need is a “temporary home” where they can rest, be cared for and recuperate.
Hope of the Valley’s Care Center will provide that “home” environment where patients will be monitored by medical staff while receiving case management from social workers. The goal is to discharge each client from Recuperative Care to Housing.
New Facility
Hope of the Valley Rescue Mission has recently purchased a stand-alone 16,000 sq. ft. commercial building on Sepulveda Blvd. in Mission Hills that will house the Recuperative Care Center.
