Services and Resources
Knowledge, information and support resources are important parts of a successful rehabilitation process and post-rehabilitation life. The Regional One Health Inpatient Rehabilitation Hospital works with patients and their caregivers to understand the external services that will be most beneficial. We help connect each patient and family with impactful resources they can use to heal, access physical and emotional support, enhance independence, and more.
