Inpatient Rehabilitation
Our 27-bed inpatient rehabilitation unit offers tailored services to help patients recover after a hospital stay due to an illness or injury. Patients admitted to our acute rehabilitation unit (ARU) receive individualized therapy aimed at maximizing their physical, cognitive, emotional, psychological and social function with a goal of returning home.
What Do You Treat?
The team of experienced rehabilitation care coordinators help patients maximize their functional goals. We provide the highest level of post-acute medical care while sustaining a caring and culturally sensitive environment.
We are devoted to the rehabilitation of patients with various disorders and conditions, including:
- Amputations
- Brain injury
- Cardiac events
- Hip fractures
- Musculoskeletal conditions
- Neurological disorders
- Organ failure recovery
- Orthopedic surgeries
- Spinal cord injury
- Stroke
- Other disabling conditions
What Can I Expect?
Our goal is to help patients regain independence as quickly and safely as possible. Patients will receive focused and intensive therapy sessions three hours per day, five days per week, to improve strength, endurance, motor control and stability. That means patients might spend time walking, getting out of bed, cooking, tying shoes, buttoning buttons or practicing any skills that need to be mastered again.
Key features that set inpatient rehabilitation units apart from other care settings:
- Daily access to a physician specially trained in rehab
- Individualized therapy for faster return home
- Low patient-to-nurse ratio (typically 5 – 7 patients per rehab nurse)
- Three hours of therapy a day, five to seven days a week
- Three-day stay at a short-term acute care hospital not required for transfer to an inpatient rehabilitation hospital
