Facility

The hospital is a 30-bed facility with 16 ventilator rooms with the capacity of in-room dialysis. 

Respiratory Diseases and Ventilator Weaning

In past years, patients on ventilators had to stay in an intensive care unit. Today, the continuum of care focuses on getting these patients out of ICUs and into a more appropriate level of care. Our multidisciplinary team of specialists has the experience and the technology needed to care for patients who need to be gradually taken off ventilation. We recognize the special needs of all patients, allowing them to progress at their own pace.

Wound Care and Ostomy Care

For patients with acute, chronic or complicated (not healing) wounds or surgical incisions, our multidisciplinary team of specialists has the experience and the technology needed to apply advanced therapies and proven clinical protocols in order to provide effective treatment options. Such wounds might include various classifications of ulcers (arterial, venous, pressure) as well as thermal/chemical burns and crush injuries. 

Rehabilitation

We provide individualized assessments and therapy techniques driven by the patient’s abilities and goals.

  • Physical therapy
  • Occupational therapy
  • Speech therapy
