We specialize in the treatment and rehabilitation of the post-intensive care and complex medical patient requiring intensive care, including specialized rehabilitation, in an acute hospital setting. With our services we provide a wide array of rehabilitation therapies to help patients progress to positive outcomes, regain function and safely return home as quickly as their recovery allows.

Mike was unresponsive when found by his mother in the hallway of his home during the middle of the night. He was rushed to the ER and diagnosed with a brain bleed and blood clots that had caused a stroke. He required two separate brain surgeries to remove the clotting, and Mike remained in a critical condition. Once stabilized Mike was transferred to OSF Transitional Care Hospital. The beginning of his treatment plan was focused on liberating him from the ventilator, removing the breathing tube, and caring for his wounds. Mike steadily made progress, and as his cognitive function improved, he became very engaged with his therapists — always willing to do what was asked of him. Once weaned from the vent and his wounds were nearly healed, Mike was transferred to the Acute Recovery Unit at OSF where he received occupational and physical therapy. Mike steadily recovered his fine motor skills and mobility. By the time he was ready to be discharged, he was back on his feet, walking and taking care of daily life tasks.

“I was basically dead for 15 minutes when they found me and began giving me CPR,” Mike shared before he was discharged to return home. “At the first hospital the surgeons virtually ‘tiptoed through my tulips’ to clear my brain of the blood clots and now here I am, going home! Father Freddy met my Life Flight and prayed over me, and then yesterday dropped by to wish me well. I wasn’t a believer before, but I am now as I have been told there are many reasons why I shouldn’t have survived. Thank you to everyone who cared for me – I am very grateful.”

Brandon has managed his epilepsy since he was very young. From pursuing a career to starting a family, it hasn’t held him back from living life to the fullest. Unfortunately, just before the holidays, Brandon suffered a Grand Mal seizure at work and was rushed to the ER. Due to its severity, Brandon was placed in a medically-induced coma and on a ventilator. He remained in a critical condition until he could be transferred to OSF Transitional Care Hospital for therapy and rehabilitation. When he first arrived, Brandon couldn’t stand or walk and was very weak. He had suffered brain damage due to the seizure and faced significant recovery challenges, but he counted on the support of his wife, Kenzie, and participated fully with his team of caregivers. Although Brandon was at OSF for a very short time, he made remarkable progress and regained the ability to walk and handle simple daily life tasks. His speech and memory also improved significantly. With a positive outlook for ongoing recovery, Brandon was discharged — returning home to Kenzie and their two young children.

“I almost didn’t make it,” Brandon shared. “Now I have to trust my neurologist who has me on all-new medications, and I am glad to be going home. I would highly recommend this facility for any and all kinds of therapy. After being in the hospital for weeks I needed to re-learn how to walk, do basic personal things and help with regaining my memory. This was one of the best hospital experiences of my life — the nurses were all fantastic, the therapists were very good at their jobs and everyone was very encouraging.”

Wanda worked as a mental health specialist at a skilled nursing facility until she contracted COVID-19 and had to be hospitalized for surgery on a severe pressure wound that developed during her convalescence. She then transferred to OSF HealthCare Transitional Hospital for the treatment of acute sepsis and an MRSA infection, and to receive advanced wound care and rehabilitation. Although she has been a paraplegic for nearly ten years due to an ATV accident, Wanda has always been fiercely independent and she was determined to recover. Her wound care nurse, Nichole, discovered surgical sponges that had not been removed, and once they were taken out Wanda improved quickly. Once she had completed her IV antibiotic treatments and her wound was resolved, Wanda was able to regain her independence with help from her rehab therapists and was discharged to return home.

“The staff here has been great about making sure that I was comfortable, they kept me informed and most importantly, they helped me maintain and recover my dignity,” Wanda shared before she was discharged. “I lost my independence through this and having no control has been terrible. Everyone here has made things much better for me and this has made all the difference!”

We use this week as a gentle reminder to get your flu shot, because it’s not too late! The season for flu is quite unpredictable; it can begin as early as fall and last up to spring. Typically, flu activity is at its peak during winter, so public health professionals and communities join forces to promote flu vaccination. Many people tend to show a cavalier attitude toward flu, dismissing it as they might a bad cold. But it’s more than that. Flu can cause serious health complications, such as bacterial infections or pneumonia, and it can lead to hospitalization.
