We continue to monitor the latest novel COVID-19 updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Our clinical leaders have implemented protocols that are consistent with CDC guidelines to ensure the quality and safety of the care we provide to our patients.
This page will be frequently updated with COVID-19 information and resources.
As of March 17, we have implemented a restricted visitation policy. Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of San Antonio is no longer allowing visitors in our hospitals with the exception of a primary caregiver who needs training to prepare for a patient's safe and efficient discharge home. Our primary goal in restricting visitors is to safeguard our patient population from contracting COVID-19 and maintain the health of our hospital staff. During this time, phone and video calls are encouraged as alternative methods of communication with patients.
Our team is still here to proudly serve our patients during this time through our inpatient rehabilitation hospital. We know this is a stressful time, and we are ready to make sure our patients receive the best and safest care possible.

In accordance with the CDC guidelines on events and gatherings, we will be postponing our upcoming support groups until further notice.
Our patient and caregiver resources hub offers information on visitation restrictions, shares suggestions on how to stay connected and addresses other frequently asked questions.
Safety is top priority at Encompass Health. We have experience and expertise in caring for patients with all types of infectious diseases and have been doing so on a daily basis, following infection control protocols consistent with CDC guidelines.
Our hospitals are a safe place to be and an important part of regaining your health.
