Who We Are
Mercy Health Rehabilitation Hospital is a state-of-the-art, 60-bed inpatient acute rehabilitation hospital dedicated to the treatment and recovery of individuals who have experienced the debilitating effects of a severe injury or illness.
Our rehabilitation programs provide ongoing care and specialized treatment to patients throughout their recovery journey. We offer customized, individualized rehabilitation tailored to the specific needs of those recovering from a stroke, brain injury, neurological conditions, trauma, spinal cord injury, amputation, and orthopedic injury.
We strive to maximize the health, function, and quality of life of those we serve through comprehensive physical medicine and rehabilitation programs.
For those acute patients who qualify, research shows inpatient rehabilitation hospitals are an effective setting for:
- Increasing independence in mobility, transfers, and activity of daily living skills
- Going home quickly
- Short lengths of stay
- Receiving daily physician and nurse attention
- Minimizing hospital readmission
