Encompass Health Corp. and Premier Health plan to open an inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Dayton, Ohio.
The hospital, named the Rehabilitation Institute of Ohio, is expected to open in early 2020 on the campus of Miami Valley Hospital and is a joint venture with Encompass Health.
Encompass Health will manage the operations of the joint venture hospital and the company's HealthSouth Rehabilitation Hospital of Dayton will relocate to the new facility.
Premier Health will contribute its inpatient rehabilitation business located in its Miami Valley Hospital to the joint venture.
The hospital will serve patients recovering from conditions including stroke and other neurological disorders, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, complex orthopedic conditions and amputation.
