Overview
Rehabilitation Units are dedicated to specialty hospital that focuses on treating patients recovering from debilitating injuries, illnesses, surgeries and chronic medical conditions. The patient population includes patients suffering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, joint replacement and neurological disease. The goal is to assist patients to reach their maximum potential, regain independence and return to their community.
