Refer a Patient

Our goal of rehabilitation is to help people live as independently as possible and be able to resume everyday activities. Help us rebuild lives by completing the appropriate referral form and submitting it with a patient demographic sheet and clinical information. 


Inpatient Referrals

REHAB accepts referrals from physicians, clinical care coordinators, discharge planners, commercial carriers and other healthcare organizations, utilizing general acute rehabilitation criteria. Each referred patient is carefully assessed to determine whether his or her specific condition would benefit from the comprehensive level of services we provide. A skilled clinical liaison will conduct this personal assessment at no charge for the case review. In some situations, a consult or assessment by a rehabilitation physician may be arranged. Most major insurances are accepted. (Pre-approval may be necessary for some insurance types.)
