Rehab's future is here: Tech-rich model brings robotics, quick results and more

Leaders at River Spring Living in New York are on the verge of flipping the “on” switch for a “rehab model for the future” that aims to revolutionize the way therapy is delivered.
Featuring robotic elements and virtual reality, its goal is to shrink the length-of-stay for short-term patients. It will employ numerous kinds of newer technology, and also introduces more wellness and hospitality touches.
The Hauser Rehab Center of Excellence has been built with the input of not only clinicians but also the housekeeping, food service and activities departments, says RiverSpring COO Deborah Messina in this McKnight’s Newsmakers podcast.
Hear how this innovative life plan community has converted parts of three existing buildings to bring the vision to reality. An October start date is racing up, but comfortably so, Messina tells McKnight’s Executive Editor James M. Berklan.
