There are times when a patient's complex medical needs require a scope of care that falls outside the boundaries of a traditional hospital. For those patients, our long-term acute care program provides the individualized attention they need for a healthy and successful recovery.

Our program delivers a careful balance of highly specialized medical care and compassionate, personalized attention. It's specifically designed for those individuals who are medically stable, but have conditions that will require more than 25 days of care.

The types of medical issues we treat cover the spectrum. They include (but are not limited to):

• Multi-Symptom Organ Failure • Low Tolerance Rehabilitation
• Chest Trauma • Neuromuscular Disease
• Cardiac-Related Disorders • Complex Orthopedic Injuries
• Extensive Post-Op Complications • Long-Term I.V. Therapy
• MRSA/VRE • Multiple Trauma
• Wound Care • Stroke Therapy
• Cancer • Peripheral Vascular
• Respiratory Compromised Patients (including ventilator-dependent patients) • Pre- and Post-Op Transplant Care
