Baptist Memorial Restorative Care Hospital

While this long-term, acute-care hospital is on the 4th floor (east wing) inside Baptist Memorial Hospital-Memphis, it is legally, organizationally and functionally separate. Baptist Memorial Restorative Care Hospital treats patients who require continued acute care over an extended length of time.

A patient may be admitted to Baptist Memorial Restorative Care Hospital under several indications:

  • Patient having difficulty weaning from a ventilator.
  • Stroke or cardiovascular patient requiring prolonged acute care.
  • Patient with multi-system processes and multiple comorbidities exacerbating an acute condition.
  • Patient with a complicated wound or ostomy (surgically created opening).
  • Patient needs step-down or intermediate care after discharge from an intensive care unit (ICU).
  • Patient requires long-term antibiotics for an acute condition.

Our goal is to transition the patient to the lowest appropriate level of care possible.
