Patient Care

Choosing A Rehabilitation Facility

Choosing a rehabilitation facility for spinal cord injury is one of the most important decisions you will have to make in the near future. It is very important to be confident about the quality of care you or a loved one will receive when entering a rehabilitation program.

Although the final decision will ultimately depend upon individual circumstances such as insurance and location, all rehabilitation programs have features that can be evaluated, regardless of your prior knowledge of rehabilitation or catastrophic injury.

What Questions Should I Ask?

Shepherd Center provides a list of questions you may want to ask as you research facilities.

In general, it is best to compare at least three rehabilitation programs to make an informed decision on the best facility for your loved one.
