Patients recovering from surgery or have neurological disorders often need to work to regain lost function. At the FirstHealth Centers for Rehabilitation, the rehabilitation team works together to provide a seamless transition from hospital to home. The ultimate goal is to help every patient regain the highest possible level of functioning and achieve an improved quality of life.
The Inpatient Rehabilitation Center consistently ranks among the top rehabilitation facilities in the region and nation in the percentage of patients who are able to return home after receiving rehabilitation services.

Inpatient Rehab vs. Skilled Nursing Rehab
What’s the Difference?
Inpatient rehabilitation within a hospital provides care that is overseen by specialty-trained rehab physicians and nurses who coordinate care for patients’ medical and rehabilitation needs. Rehabilitation physicians and rehabilitation nurses must be available on a 24-hour basis, and a physician must see the patient regularly.
The multidisciplinary care provided by inpatient rehabilitation hospital physicians, nurses and therapists is unmatched by other health settings.
Rehab services are offered in other health settings, such as nursing homes, however there is no physician-on-duty requirement, no requirement for an interdisciplinary team approach or no minimum requirement for the amount of therapy provided.
