A team of expert rehabilitation professionals will provide intensive nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech pathology services to help patients regain independence and safely return home.

The rehabilitation hospital will be specially designed to create a therapeutic environment for patients and will be equipped with current leading-edge amenities and adaptive units, including multidisciplinary therapy gymnasiums, a specialized "activities of daily living" suite, and outdoor courtyards designed to encourage patient movement and activity.
