- Culture of excellence: Kettering Health Hamilton is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) for their Hospital Adult Inpatient Rehab Program and Hospital Stroke Speciality Rehab Program.
- Diverse expert teams: Physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, rehab physicians (physiatrists), and rehab specialty nurses collaborate to give you treatment that gets you home sooner.
- Integrated therapy: Most patients receive three hours of physical and occupational therapy six days per week. Speech therapy is also included for patients who have language, cognition, or swallowing issues.
