 PAM Rehabilitation Hospital of Dover is slated to open late this year.  

The multi-milllion dollar 34-bed medical rehabilitation hospital is under construction at 1240 McKee Road, Dover, and is expected to open in December. A groundbreaking ceremony was held last week.

An affiliate of Post Acute Medical, LLC, the freestanding medical rehabilitation hospital will feature a physician-led team of rehabilitation experts focused on the goal of increasing patient strength and endurance and improving their quality of life.

“The higher level of hospital care provided in the acute rehabilitation setting cannot be found at other levels of care, such as nursing homes or skilled nursing facilities,” explains Ted Werner, CEO. “We provide one-on-one individualized therapy five to seven days a week, daily medical visits by a physician and a nurse-patient ratio that contributes to the highest quality of care.”

A physician specifically trained in medical rehabilitation will direct the rehabilitation programs for patients who have experienced a stroke, brain injury, neurological disease and deficits, amputations, pulmonary disease, orthopedic conditions, spinal cord injury and medically complex conditions. Features of the new comprehensive rehabilitation hospital will include:
