Don't go anywhere else! When it comes to expertise in rehabilitation there is no other choice but HealhSouth RIOSA. Both my mother and father have been patients at RIOSA. My Mom had an orthopedic injury so she was only there a few days and was able to quickly transition to their outpatient department but my Dad's course was more complicated. From the minute you walk in the door it is obvious these clinicians are not only very experienced in their field but also very compassionate. The hospital invests in the best of technology for their patients as well to help get them home faster and become more independent. It is always very clean and smells nice which is not always the case at some that I've seen.The nurses, therapists and Drs all encourage patients to do their best. My father went in so weak after hospitalizations that he could not walk or shower himself. After spending 2 weeks there he was walking 300 feet and able to bathe and dress himself. He was able to return home. Since it is licensed as a hospital, a Dr. saw him every day. He was also seen by their neurologist who quickly diagnosed a problem that had not been identified before he was transferred there. I was pleased that he had nurses employed by them and not agency nurses. The staff treated him as if he were one of their own relatives. My parents were always there for me and I'm glad that I helped them to get the care that they deserved!
