What is a critical illness recovery hospital?

We are a hospital where chronically, critically ill patients heal and recover.

Like your loved one, our patients are facing serious medical condition(s), trauma or intensive care and require an extended hospital stay.

Physician-led, interdisciplinary care teams support that recovery by developing a customized treatment plan that helps patients breathe, eat, walk, talk and think again.

The following are many of the medically complex conditions we treat:

Pulmonary/ventilator liberation
Neurological disorders
Cardiac
Renal disorders
Infectious disease
Post-trauma care/traumatic brain injury
Surgical complications
Orthopedic care
Wound care

What is inpatient rehabilitation?

Inpatient rehabilitation is a medically-based, interdisciplinary team approach to the treatment of stroke, brain and spinal cord injury, amputation, neurologic diseases and other injuries or illnesses.

RUSH Specialty Hospital - Inpatient Rehabilitation draws on the expertise and experience of a team of doctors; nurses; physical, occupational and speech therapists; dietitians; case managers and other clinical and support staff to best meet your needs.

Our comprehensive rehabilitation programs are designed to restore strength, improve physical and cognitive function and promote independence in daily activities, including self-care skills such as dressing, grooming and eating.
