We specialize in the treatment and rehabilitation of the post-intensive care and complex medical patient requiring intensive care, including specialized rehabilitation, in an acute hospital setting. With our services we provide a wide array of rehabilitation therapies to help patients progress to positive outcomes, regain function and safely return home as quickly as their recovery allows.

Constance was admitted to UCI – Los Alamitos after experiencing shortness of breath, weakness, nausea, and vomiting. Her condition quickly became critical, and she required intubation and multiple medications to stabilize her. During this time, she was also diagnosed with acute kidney injury (AKI).

After two weeks, Constance’s condition improved enough for her to be extubated and placed on a nasal cannula for oxygen support. However, she still needed further treatment to regain her strength and continue her recovery while managing her Stage 4 endometrial cancer.

When Constance was admitted to Kindred Hospital Westminster, she required significant assistance with nearly all activities of daily living. She could sit at the edge of the bed with moderate help but struggled with labored breathing. She was dependent for lower body bathing and dressing, needed moderate assistance for upper body care, and was unable to walk. She also began speech therapy to help her transition from a liquid diet.

Through the dedication of her interdisciplinary care team and her own determination, Constance made steady and remarkable progress. Her kidney function improved, and her AKI fully resolved. By the time of discharge, she was modified independent with upper body dressing and sponge bathing from her wheelchair, required only minimal assistance for lower body dressing and toileting, and could walk more than 350 feet with a front-wheeled walker and minimal support. Her diet was also successfully advanced to regular foods and thin liquids.

Constance’s strength, perseverance, and the support of her care team allowed her to safely return home with her family. Her journey is a powerful reminder of resilience, recovery, and the healing power of hope.

Kindred Hospitals specialize in treating complex respiratory conditions, particularly in ventilator weaning. Pulmonologists and respiratory therapists work together to help even the most complex patients breathe on their own again. Our rehabilitation teams also help patients - including those on ventilation - start moving as early and as much as possible. Most of our hospitals have earned Joint Commission certification in Respiratory Failure, showing our commitment to delivering excellent respiratory care.

Paul, 62, had no prior medical history before he was involved in a serious automobile accident. On March 28, 2025, he was airlifted to Providence Mission Hospital, where doctors discovered he had a cerebral aneurysm, a splenic laceration, and a traumatic brain injury. He was placed on a ventilator to protect his airway.

After spending more than two months at Providence Mission Hospital, Paul was transferred to Kindred Hospital Westminster on May 30, 2025, to continue his recovery. At the time of his transfer, he required ventilator support, hemodialysis, a chest tube, and was unable to stand or walk.

With the support of respiratory therapists, Dr. Sweidan, and the interdisciplinary care team, Paul was weaned off the ventilator, successfully decannulated, and transitioned to using oxygen through a nasal cannula.

When he arrived, Paul was unable to consistently follow commands or mouth words, and he did not initially show the potential to participate in physical or occupational therapy. Over time, with reevaluation and persistence, he began physical, occupational, and speech therapy three times a week. At first, he required maximum assistance from two caregivers to move from sitting to lying down, but he was able to sit at the edge of the bed for five minutes. During this time, Paul received nutrition through a PEG feeding tube.

Through steady progress, Paul regained alertness and orientation, began communicating and following commands, and worked with therapists to regain mobility. By the time of discharge, he was able to transfer to a wheelchair and had advanced to an easy-to-chew diet with thin liquids.

After 81 days at Kindred Hospital Westminster, Paul was discharged to an Acute Rehabilitation Unit (ARU), decannulated, on a regular oral diet, communicating clearly, and participating actively in therapy. He looks forward to continuing his rehabilitation journey and is grateful for the care and support he received during this challenging time.

Patients at Kindred Hospitals begin receiving gentle in-bed therapy as soon as they are able to, progressing to more advanced movements as they recover.
