After establishing the first rehabilitation hospital in 1937 in Texas, The Post Acute / Warm Springs System has provided the healing touch to thousands of patients recovering from accidents, injury and illness. Today, more than 70 years since its founding to treat children and adults during the polio epidemic of the 1930's and 40's, The Post Acute Medical / Warm Springs System has led the way and kept abreast of the changing rehabilitation needs of patients. Part of that change was to expand into the specialty hospital market, (long term acute care hospital, LTACH) providing focused care for the medically complex patient for Ventilator Weaning, Wound Care, Multi-System failure and medical issues requiring critical care expertise. Post Acute Medical and its subsidiaries Warm Springs Hospital System and Northshore Specialty Hospital, are committed to providing high quality patient care and outstanding customer service, coupled with loyalty and dedication of highly trained staff, to be the most trusted source for post-acute services in every community it serves. The Post Acute Medical / Warm Springs system continues to build upon its history as a respected provider of quality healthcare services by continuing to develop an environment that fosters meaningful improvement and recovery for people with injuries, illness and disabilities.
