Superior outcomes

We are focused on two things: the progress our patients make and the outcomes they achieve. This is evidenced by our industry-leading performance scores.

We want you to get better, and to make that happen, we need to know where you began. Upon arrival at one of our hospitals, we will measure how much help you need to perform basic skills – this is called your FIM® score. Your rehabilitation team will review your FIM® score with you, set challenging but attainable goals, and design a treatment plan to help you meet your specific goals. Before your leave the hospital, we will rescore your FIM® assessment to see how much you’ve improved, determine how well you have met your goals, and provide you the materials and training you need to continue your progress after you leave the hospital.

Rehabilitation nurses

Our nurses deliver specialized, around-the-clock care that is crucial on a patient’s journey to recovery.

Physical therapists

Our physical therapists help patients increase their physical function, mobility, strength, balance and safety by designing specialized testing and exercises.

Occupational therapists

Our occupational therapists design activity-based therapy to promote a patient’s independence in self-care, home management and work skills.

Rehabilitation physicians

Our independent private-practice physicians and medical directors have specialized training and experience in rehabilitation medicine, and provide close clinical oversight for each patient and their treatment plan.
