Kindred long-term acute care (LTAC) hospitals provide aggressive, specialized interdisciplinary care to medically complex patients who require extended recovery time. These patients are ill and have few care options left; they come to us because they require the aggressive, specialized care and prolonged recovery time that conventional short-term acute care hospitals may not be equipped to provide.

We are proud of our clinical outcomes - in 2011, Kindred’s Long-Term Acute Care Hospitals treated the sickest, most medically complex patients, discharging nearly 70% of patients home or to a lower level of care after an average length of stay of 28 days. From 2008 to 2011, we have reduced rehospitalization rates by more than 8%. To learn more, read our 2011 Quality and Social Responsibility Report.
Our hospitals have 24-hour physician support and the ancillary services found at an acute care hospital, including laboratory, radiology, operating or procedure rooms, high acuity units or intensive care units (ICUs) and telemetry units. They are licensed as acute care hospitals and are accredited by The Joint Commission.
