The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) is an independent, nonprofit accrediting body whose mission is to promote quality, value, and optimal outcomes of medical services through a consultative accreditation process focused on enhancing the lives of patients. When you choose a CARF-accredited rehabilitation program, it means the facility has passed an in-depth review. Our CARF accreditation is your assurance of our commitment to maintain more than 1,800 standards focused on patient care, education, safety, functional outcomes, and community reintegration. Not all rehabilitation facilities are accredited; visit carf.org to learn more. Since our initial accreditation, we have continued our commitment to advanced care, maintaining our general rehab CARF certification.
To help facilitate healing, our unit has a soothing environment and patient rooms featuring interactive television with internet access and electronic communication boards. Our dedicated gym includes special technologies to help you with walking. There is also a mock apartment for you to practice activities of daily life, such as cooking and bathing.
