Everett Transitional Care Services
Helping Transition to the Next Level of Care
Bethany of the Northwest, Regional Medical Center, and Swedish Edmonds Hospital are working together to support the needs of the community. This joint partnership, Everett Transitional Care Services, serves a very important purpose for this in Snohomish county in need. Initially, we collaborated on a special needs rehab unit. In 2020, as the community needs changed, the focus of our partnership turned to those who are struggling to find placement in skilled nursing, assisted living, adult family homes, or other community locations. These individuals would otherwise remain in the hospital unnecessarily. Everett Transitional Care Services is a conduit that connects individuals from the hospital to home, at the pace that is appropriate for them. Initially, this partnership utilized 31 beds at Providence Pacific Campus. In November 2022 it expanded to a second floor, for a total of 62 beds dedicated to serve this population.

Everett Transitional Care Services (ETCS) seeks to improve the quality of life for patients being discharged from the hospital and help transition to the next level of care.
