DALLAS and OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Everest Rehabilitation Hospitals cuts ribbon on its fifth physical rehabilitation hospital in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The 41,000 square foot, 36 private bed, modern post-acute care rehabilitation hospital is located at 7900 Mid-America Blvd, just off interstate 240 near Sooner Rd. The hospital provides physician led comprehensive rehabilitative services, with around the clock registered nursing care and staff specifically trained to help patients overcome a variety of debilitating illnesses including stroke, brain injury, neurological deficits, orthopedic conditions, pulmonary disease, spinal cord injury, amputations, post COVID-19 recovery and other complex medical conditions. Rehabilitation hospitals are extremely valuable to the communities they serve acting as the "bridge" between a patient's surgery and home allowing patients to recover near their home and support system.
Jay Quintana, Everest Rehabilitation Hospital CEO and co-founder said, "We are thrilled to be opening our fifth rehab hospital in OKC and its culmination of our 180th physical rehab hospital bed in five markets over three states. We are so excited to be providing our 'Everest' quality of rehab care to the citizens of Oklahoma. Our enormous level of care in our modern, naturally lit, acute rehabilitation hospital setting cannot be provided at other levels of care such as skilled nursing facilities or nursing homes."
