Patients with a spinal cord injury, regardless of etiology, level of injury and comorbidities are assessed individually. We do not accept patients who require mechanical ventilation.

Discharge or transition planning to the next level of care begins during the preadmission and admissions phases and continues throughout the inpatient rehabilitation stay. The responsibility for discharge planning is shared by all members of the treatment team, including the patient and their family or support system.

The discharge or transition is primarily coordinated by the care manager, and is based on these criteria:

• Evidence in record that patient has achieved stated goals
• Medical complications preclude intensive rehabilitative effort
• Patient’s rehabilitation needs no longer require interdisciplinary therapy
• No further significant or measurable functional improvement is anticipated to alter discharge disposition, add practical value, improve functional capacity or impact level of care
• Inpatient rehabilitation level of medical supervision by a physiatrist is no longer required
• Patient no longer require intensive rehabilitation setting, defined as three hours of therapy five times a week or 15 hours of therapy over seven consecutive days
• Patient is not willing or able to participate in the intensive rehabilitation program for a period of more than three days
