The Casa Colina Stroke Program is renowned for offering one of the most extensive stroke rehabilitation facilities
available in the country. It offers various levels of care that include
Casa Colina Hospital, a Joint Commission-accredited facility,
which has a unique physician-directed program designed to help stroke survivors travel the path to recovery through
various levels of rehabilitation. It offers more ways to help people regain their independence, return home, and enjoy
their lives again.
The hospital relies on proven clinical pathways that ensure “best practices” are used by the team throughout a patient’s stay.
The Casa Colina Stroke Program’s inpatient rehabilitation involves:
- Board-certified physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians and licensed nurses specializing in rehabilitation
- Doctors and nurses available around the clock
- All patient services directed by a physician
- A detailed clinical pathway of care designed for stroke patients
- At least 3 hours of therapy, a minimum of 5 days a week (may include physical, occupational, speech therapies and other disciplines as needed)
- Weekly clinical-team conferences to discuss patient care and progress
- State-of-the-art medical and rehabilitation facilities for neurological patients, including indoor and outdoor therapy gymnasiums, activities-of-daily-living and speech language suites, aquatic therapy pools, laboratory, imaging and diagnostic services

Upon being discharged from Casa Colina Hospital, some individuals may not be completely ready to return to their
home and community settings. They may require post-acute care to further their rehabilitation. The CARF-accredited
Transitional Living Center, located on campus directly
across from the hospital, offers a short-term residential setting where individuals may benefit from six hours of
individual and group therapy, six days a week. A day treatment program is also available.
