convalescent homes
Post-hospital care centers
Convalescent homes are residential facilities where people recover from illness, surgery, or injury.
Unlike hospitals, they provide extended care for patients who are past the acute phase but not yet ready to return home.
The term sounds somewhat dated; nursing home or rehabilitation center now more commonly describes such places.
