Our patients have access to the latest rehabilitative technology, private patient rooms, and well-equipped therapy areas that include a 6,000-square foot therapy gym and a therapeutic courtyard.

Modeled after national best practices, our Transitional Outcomes Program (TOP) is a patient-centered service designed to increase patient safety and reduce readmission rates to acute care facilities.

Patient engagement, education, and empowerment are integral to our program’s success.
