Total discharge growth
Total discharge growth of 6.0%
Treated approximately 7.5% of
patients recovering from a stroke

Advanced technology
We expanded in-house hemodialysis service
to a total of 127 hospitals. Providing our
patients dialysis on site without interrupting
therapy or requiring travel improves patient
satisfaction and lowers our cost of treatment.
Quality
We operate 149 hospitals
that hold one or more of the
following Joint Commission
Disease-Speci c Care
Certi cations in rehabilitation:
stroke, hip fracture, cardiac,
pulmonary, brain injury,
amputee, Parkinson s disease
and spinal cord injury.
Clinical innovation
In 2021, we initiated our fall
prevention model which
combines predictive modeling
with our core clinical practice
protocols. Since then we have
seen our fall rates per 1,000
patient days improve 32%.
We continued to provide
high-quality care by placing
our patients rst.
