Living with a disability or having a loved one adapt to a disability can be a devastating experience. There are so many options to consider, such as finding the care and support to help restore the quality of life that is often taken away. That’s why at the San Diego Rehabilitation Institute at Alvarado Hospital, we specialize in striving to restore patients to a higher quality of life following disability.

The San Diego Rehabilitation Institute offers a full spectrum of care including inpatient acute rehabilitation and outpatient services. Upon admission, the treatment team directed by a physician specializing in rehabilitation evaluates each patients needs and develops an individualized treatment plan. Personalized goals are established; progress is monitored and formally evaluated throughout the inpatient stay or outpatient treatment.

Our rehabilitation services benefit patients having difficulty with self-care activities, mobility, safety, speech, swallowing, cognition and psychosocial adjustments as a result of a disabling illness, injury or degenerative disease. Typical diagnoses include brain injury, stroke, complicated orthopedic conditions, neurological disorders, spinal cord injury, burns, amputation and neuropathy.

Our certified 30-bed acute rehabilitation unit provides 24-hour, seven-days-a-week rehab nursing care, and intensive therapy before returning home or to an assisted-living facility. We are committed to helping you regain as much function as possible after an injury or illness, maximizing your independence, and assisting with re-entry into the community. Team members provide training and education for patients and their families throughout treatment.

Upon discharge from the hospital, you can still benefit from intensive outpatient rehabilitation services to enhance and maximize your recovery. At Alvarado's San Diego Rehabilitation Institute, we provide a comprehensive, interdisciplinary team approach tailored for you to function at your highest potential at home and in your community. Physical, speech and occupational therapy specialists work closely with you, your caregiver and/or family, to assure you get the best and most from your important recovery time.

We also offer a number of community-based support groups that you may choose to become involved in—such as the Stroke Peer Visitor Program, Comebacker’s Neuro Club, Artability, and Restorative Golf program. Our goal is your goal—to resume your highest level of functioning and quality of life, as quickly and safely as possible.
