The new facility is scheduled to start taking patients in spring 2027. The four-story hospital will feature 52 private rooms with full bathrooms, including specialty care patient rooms. It will provide acute adult inpatient care for those recovering from strokes, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries and other severe conditions.
Clinical services will include physical and occupational therapies, speech pathology services and specialized programs dedicated to neurological, stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury and amputation rehabilitation. The rehabilitation hospital will also haves a secured brain injury unit with private dining and a dedicated therapy gym.
Patients will be able to enhance their treatment by using large interdisciplinary gyms and a therapeutic courtyard featuring golf, gardens and varied surfaces for mobility training. The facility will also include a transitional living apartment that simulates a residential environment, where patients can practice daily living tasks in preparation for a smooth transition back home.
“This new facility is not just about providing rehabilitation services while patients are in treatment; it’s about supporting them beyond their stay,” said El Camino Health CEO Dan Woods. “With dedicated transitional services, we aim to help patients regain independence and successfully return to their everyday lives.”
The rehabilitation hospital is part of El Camino Health’s strategic growth plans in the Bay Area, where it operates hospitals in Los Gatos and Mountain View and urgent care clinics in Cupertino and San Jose.
