Five Focus Areas of Recovery
We specialize in treating patients recovering from catastrophic critical illness. Our interdisciplinary care teams develop personalized treatment plans to meet patient needs, with a goal to improve over time and return to daily life. This brief video outlines the five core aspects of our hospitals' approach to critical illness recovery. Our goal with every patient is to help them breathe, eat, walk, talk and think again, as independently as possible. We call this “The Five Whys.”

As the nation’s largest provider of post-acute care, we take pride in creating an exceptional patient experience. We treat patients who need more time to recover from critical illness and prepare them for the next level of care or discharge home. Typically, our patients include those on ventilator support, experiencing multi-system organ failure or multiple, chronic illnesses.
