Inpatient rehabilitation can be a key part of the healing process for individuals who have suffered a catastrophic illness or injury such as a stroke, seizure, traumatic brain injury, sports injury or motor vehicle accident. For more than 50 years, the Rehabilitation Institute at Banner – University Medical Center Phoenix has delivered comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation services from a robust team of board certified physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians, therapists, nurses and specialists from institutes and centers across the academic teaching hospital. 

This comprehensive and integrated approach to our inpatient programs at the Rehabilitation Institute can help you achieve the highest possible level of independence and quality of life. We address your physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs with the ultimate goal of a safe and successful discharge. Even more focused treatment is available at the Brain Injury Center and Stroke Rehabilitation Center.

We believe this is a core tenet of the rehabilitation process. Patient and caregiver teaching and training helps us achieve our goal of your safe and successful transition home.

The Rehabilitation Institute provides physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM & R) and follow-up care in the rehabilitation medicine clinic to focus on health, wellness and the challenges of living and aging with a disability.
