Description

Leaders at River Spring Living in New York are on the verge of flipping the “on” switch for a “rehab model for the future” that aims to revolutionize the way therapy is delivered.
Featuring robotic elements, its goal is to shrink the length-of-stay for short-term patients and employ numerous kinds of newer technology.
THe Hauser Rehab Center of Excellence has been built with the input of not only clinicians but also the housekeeping, food service and activities departments, says RiverSpring COO Deborah Messina in this McKnight’s Newsmakers podcast.
Hear how this innovative life plan community has converted parts of three existing buildings to bring the vision to reality. An October start date is racing up, but comfortably so, Messina tells McKnight’s Executive Editor James M. Berklan.
