McALLEN, Texas – Rio Grande Regional Hospital recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of its newly built Inpatient Rehabilitation Center. The modern and advanced Inpatient Rehabilitation Center provides comprehensive services to aid patients in the recovery process following an acute hospitalization.

The hospital-based program provides a combination of medical, nursing, and therapy care designed specifically for patients after surgery, injury, trauma, or a stroke. Patient care is provided by a dedicated team of healthcare professionals who work together to provide the patients with the skills, motivation, and clinical expertise required to help them regain their quality of life and ability to care for themselves.

The new, 15-bed Inpatient Rehabilitation Center is equipped with every service a patient needs, including; a gym and exercise area, as well as a training kitchen and bathroom, extensive training for both the patient and their caregivers, and 24/7 access to nursing and physician care, imaging, dialysis, and emergency care.
