Our
facility, designed solely for the provision of specialized rehabilitative
care, is the only freestanding acute rehabilitation hospital
serving Brownsville and the Rio Grande Valley. The facility’s unique design
fosters a comfortable and responsive environment for our patients. Our
hospital provides rehabilitative services for patients with functional
deficits as a result of debilitating illnesses or injuries. Through
our inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation programs, we help
patients recover quickly and return home with a renewed sense
of self-sufficiency.
Stroke and other neurological patients can now regain lost mobility and achieve
greater independence through treatment options that include the Bioness® NESS
H200® Hand Rehabilitation System and NESS L300® Foot Drop System. The
innovative functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems help patients
recovering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, cerebral
palsy and incomplete spinal cord injury regain muscle control, giving
them more function, more freedom, more life.
We
believe that the path to recovery involves more than
just the physical. We staff specialists
in many areas at our hospital to help you with your
recovery. We strive to make sure that you return to your
daily life as healthy as possible.
