Indianapolis, IN—Community Health Network and Kindred Rehabilitation Services (KRS) broke ground today on their third inpatient rehabilitation hospital in the Indianapolis area, at 8920 E 56th Street in Brownsburg.
The 50,000-square-foot, two-story facility, to be called Community Rehabilitation Hospital West, will focus on acute rehabilitation for patients who suffer from stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, complex neurological disorders, orthopedic conditions, multiple traumas, amputation and other injuries or disorders. Large multidisciplinary therapy gymnasiums will be outfitted with the latest therapeutic technologies, including augmented reality balance training, therapy bionics and a full body exoskeleton. The 40-bed hospital will also include a therapeutic courtyard with exterior amenities to support patient care and help return the patient back to daily living activities.
Community and KRS operate Community Rehabilitation Hospital North in Northeast Indianapolis, which opened in June 2013, and Community Rehabilitation Hospital South in Greenwood, which opened in August 2018.
“Thanks to this partnership, our rehabilitation services are changing lives across the Indianapolis market,” said Jason Fahrlander, Community Health Network Chief Operating Officer. “We have great success helping patients in our north and south hospitals. Extending to the west allows us to provide the same patient-focused, specialized rehabilitation services, while making it easier for patients to access them.”
The third hospital will help address the growing need for inpatient rehabilitation services in the Indianapolis area.
“We are excited to grow our partnership with Community Health Network and expand access in central Indiana to high-quality, compassionate rehabilitative care,” said Russ Bailey, President of KRS. “This partnership already created Newsweek’s top-rated inpatient rehabilitation center in the state – our sister hospital on the north side – and we expect similar great things from this facility as we strive to deliver hope, healing and recovery to our patients.”
Today’s groundbreaking kicks off an estimated 12-month construction project. The hospital expects to employ approximately 170 and accept its first patient in the first quarter of 2023.
“This groundbreaking and the construction of a new, state-of-the-art specialty hospital would not happen without the proven success of this partnership in addressing the inpatient rehabilitation needs of this community,” said Annette Seabrook, Market CEO for KRS in the Indianapolis area. “As Indianapolis grows, we are ready to keep pace. We look forward to welcoming patients to this facility and helping them along their rehabilitation journeys.”
