Hillcrest Firethorn Description
With 25+ years of experience in post-acute rehabilitation, we understand what it takes to help guests get back to their optimal level of function. We have our own team of therapists, not a contracted third-party therapy company, to provide guests with consistent and reliable care throughout their stay. With state-of-the-art therapy equipment, we provide innovative physical, occupational and speech therapy to help speed up recovery.
Our entire team is focused on each guest’s recovery so they can return to their optimal level of function after transitioning to home or a lower level of care. Guests stay with us for an average of 14 to 20 days based on their physician-directed care plan. Medical care is overseen by our on-staff Chief Medical Officer Dr. Anthony Hatcher, who meets with guests at least twice per week.
Hillcrest Firethorn also provides 13 specialty rooms, featuring piped-in oxygen for guests with cardiopulmonary diseases.
