Encompass Health Southwest region president Frank Brown said: “We are excited to bring inpatient rehabilitation services to the Westover Hills community.

“The hospital will provide high-quality, compassionate and individualised care close to home, helping patients regain the strength and function needed to return to the community at their highest level of independence.”

The latest development comes after Encompass Health announced plans to construct a new inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Concordville, Pennsylvania, US.

The Concordville facility also features 50 beds to offer comprehensive care.
