At Wellstar Roosevelt, we deliver long-term acute care for medically complex patients through our dedicated on-site provider care. The expert care our patients and community know and trust continues at Wellstar Roosevelt Rehabilitation Care with hands-on therapy and interdisciplinary teamwork.
Inpatient care is maximized
through a two-hospital approach.
Long-Term Acute Care
Wellstar Roosevelt specializes in treating critically ill patients who require continued intensive care and specialized rehabilitation in an acute hospital setting.
Our team of expert clinicians are specially trained to care for patients who have been in an intensive care unit, a critical care unit or who are chronically ill and frequently readmitted to the hospital. On average, our patients stay with us for 25 days, and we have proven success in treating patients with pulmonary disease and respiratory failure—with a vent weaning success rate of 87.5%.
In close partnership with Chief Medical Officer Dr. Jackson Elam, the entire team at Wellstar Roosevelt recognizes and uses the most successful, evidence-based practices. Board-certified physicians make daily rounds, and our highly experienced nursing staff provide 24-hour care to every patient. At Wellstar Roosevelt, an interdisciplinary team is determined for each patient based on their individual needs and may include respiratory therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech language pathologists, registered dieticians, clinical pharmacists and case managers.
