Groundbreaking is slated for Feb. 20 for the PAM Rehabilitation Hospital in Dover.
Post Acute Medical, LLC, a Pennsylvania company, will operate the multi-million dollar 42,000-square-foot acute inpatient rehabilitation hospital will provide inpatient rehabilitation and outpatient therapy services for families in the Dover area.
Located near the intersection of McKee Road and College Road, the 34-bed hospital will be the first of its kind in the region. Features will include an inpatient rehab gym, outpatient rehab gym, radiology and laboratory services, a full dietary department, and other support and ancillary services.
“Post Acute Medical is excited to provide this much needed specialized healthcare service to the community of Dover and the surrounding areas. We look forward to providing comprehensive rehabilitation to help individuals regain independence and assist in recovery after suffering from injury, illness, or disability, says Anthony Misitano, CEO of PAM. “In every community we serve, our priority is the patient, and we are happy to bring this level of care into Dover so individuals can receive high quality rehabilitation services locally.”
Michael Graham, partner of hospital developer MedCore added, “We are excited to bring this important project to fruition that will serve the families and providers in the city of Dover for years to come. It is always an honor to work with Post Acute Medical as the staff and leadership continually strive to bring best-in-class service to each community the organization serves.”
PAM Rehabilitation Hospital of Delaware is the second collaboration between MedCore Partners, a medical real estate developer and Post Acute Medical.
The companies previously completed an inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Kyle, TX.
By utilizing healthcare analytics and modeling tools, MedCore was able to identify a significant demand for inpatient rehabilitation services in the Dover market. They were then successful at rezoning the site to accommodate the hospital, a release stated.
MedCore previously announced that the Dover facility will be ready for patients by the end of 2018.
