PeaceHealth and Lifepoint Rehabilitation, a business unit of 有料盒子APP, announced today that they have entered into a joint venture partnership to build and operate a new stand-alone, inpatient rehabilitation facility in Vancouver, Washington.
The new facility will provide inpatient rehabilitation services for adults who have experienced a loss of function or disability due to stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, neurological disorders, orthopedic surgery, amputation and other conditions.
With a total of 50 private rooms, the proposed building will more than triple the patient capacity of the existing 14-bed PeaceHealth inpatient rehabilitation unit. Upon completion of this project, PeaceHealth will shift the beds from its inpatient unit to the new facility, providing opportunities for expansion of acute care services within PeaceHealth Southwest.
This expansion will allow PeaceHealth and Lifepoint Rehabilitation to increase access to inpatient rehabilitation services in the region, addressing a significant community need.
“We are excited about this partnership,” says Cherelle Montanye, PeaceHealth Southwest Chief Hospital Executive. “Both PeaceHealth and Lifepoint Rehabilitation share a strong commitment to delivering high quality care, and this project ensures those in our community who must currently seek care out of the area will have the ability to receive care locally.”
This is the second joint venture partnership between PeaceHealth and Lifepoint Rehabilitation. Last March, the partners announced a joint venture to construct a standalone, 50-bed acute inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Springfield, Oregon to open in 2026.
“We are pleased to once again partner with PeaceHealth as we expand access to critically needed inpatient rehabilitation services for patients in Vancouver and the surrounding region,” said David Stark, chief operating officer for Lifepoint Rehabilitation. “Restoring patients to their daily lives in good health is at the heart of our work in rehabilitation services, and we know PeaceHealth shares our patient-first approach to investing in high-quality specialty care. We look forward to all that we will accomplish together as we advance our mission of making communities healthier ®.”
Pending required regulatory approvals, construction for the new inpatient rehabilitation facility is expected to begin in late 2025 with an expected opening in 2027.
The PeaceHealth rehabilitation facility will join Lifepoint Rehabilitation’s growing network of more than 40 inpatient rehabilitation facilities across the country.
