Healthsouth Rehabilitation and Outpatient Services

About Outpatient Rehab

Outpatient rehabilitation is a form of therapy where patients travel to a clinic or hospital to attend sessions and then return home the same day. Typically, a therapy session lasts from 30 minutes to an hour. When patients are admitted into outpatient programs, it shows that the patients are doing well enough to be home, and their doctors have confidence in them completing their course of therapy through outpatient rehabilitation.

The HealthSouth Difference: Patient-Focused, Results-Driven Rehabilitation

HealthSouth takes a unique approach to rehabilitation:

• Specialization : Unlike skilled nursing homes, each HealthSouth hospital is dedicated full time to rehabilitation. All decisions, budgets and resources are focused on rehabilitation.
• Results-driven : Every minute of every day, the focus is on results. We work hard to get each patient strong, functional and as independent as possible.
• The team approach : Qualified and passionate rehabilitation experts work together to plan and execute quality treatment.
• Accreditation and certification :  All HealthSouth hospitals are fully accredited.  In addition, many HealthSouth hospitals have received special certifications for their excellence in service related to specific conditions.
• Continuum of care : HealthSouth helps patients transition from their current hospital to HealthSouth, and then helps them transition to more independent  rehabilitation as they progress.
• A nationwide network : HealthSouth is one of the nation’s rehabilitation leaders.
• Experienced leadership with a strong company mission.
• Leading-edge rehabilitation technology.
