Inpatient Rehabilitation

Recovery is Possible
That’s why we’re here.

Therapy plays a very important role in recovery from a life-altering injury or illness. We offer a hospital-based physical rehabilitation program for the treatment of those who have experienced a debilitating injury or illness. Nursing care is provided 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so you have the support and assistance you need around the clock.

As our patient, you’ll have the support of a specialized team that includes a rehab-trained doctor, therapists, rehab nurses, social workers, and dietitians. Immediately on admission, your care team quickly works to create goals around your specific needs. On a weekly basis, your care team reviews and adjusts the goals based on your progress. Whether you’re in a therapy session or getting ready for bed, your team will support you in achieving your goals and recovering to the fullest.

We know your loved ones are making adjustments as well and may need support during your recovery. We encourage your family members to be involved throughout your stay. Our therapists will educate family members and caregivers on how best to support you during therapy and the next phase of your recovery.

 
 

Scope of Services

 

Comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation services are provided to any adult patient aged 18 or older with neurological, orthopedic and/or other medical conditions. Conditions may be those with a sudden onset or a chronic, regressing condition. We can help improve the quality of life of patients who have experienced a loss of function in activities of daily living, mobility, cognition, or communication. We work closely with patients and their families to ensure a smooth transition from the time of admission until discharge. We will help you get back home or find a more appropriate placement if necessary.

  • Require a hospital level of care (24-hour nursing and physician availability)
  • Be able to tolerate at least three hours of rehabilitation activities five days per week
  • Have potential for significant improvement
  • Need more intensive services than those provided by a skilled nursing facility
  • Be able to learn new information or have a caregiver available for training
