Nonprofit Overview
Mission: The hospital provides health care services to acutely ill individuals without regard to race, creed, color, national origin, gender, disability or ability to pay.
Programs: Hospital for extended recovery ("her") was formed to provide restorative care to acutely ill individuals with conditions including, but not limited to, post surgery, respiratory ailments, wound care, cancer and cardiac patients and those dependent on ventilator care whose condition is so significant that an average stay of four weeks or more is expected. "her" meets the medical, therapeutic and rehabilitative needs of individuals using an interdisciplinary team approach incorporating medical management and therapies in an effort to restore individual quality of life to as high a degree of normalcy as possible. Treatment is structured to reduce patient dependency on others and to promote self-help and independence. "her" is part of the continuum of care that begins with acute hospital care and continues through various venues. "her" has 35 licensed beds and provided 6,160 days of care during the year ended 5/31/17. As a part of sentara healthcare, her participates in many of the iniatives developed to improve patient care. Examples are: reducing hospital aquired infections by using copper infused bedding and cupron enhanced eos surfaces in patient rooms; improving patient safety through technology by using a protected network linking patient medical information between hospitals, physician practices and other care sites; and using barcode technology to reduce bedside medication errors.
