Manager Rehabilitation Services

Manager of Rehabilitation Services

The Manager of Rehabilitation Services is responsible for the day-to-day operations and growth of Rehabilitation Services. This includes coordinating with all therapy disciplines to plan appropriate clinical and specialized rehabilitation programs.

The manager also collaborates closely with Chelsea Hospital departments and physicians to ensure seamless patient care. The department includes approximately 80 team members, supporting both inpatient and outpatient rehab services following a recent expansion of the inpatient rehab unit.

Chelsea Hospital, a joint venture with Michigan Medicine, has seen a significant rise in patient complexity across both its acute care and inpatient rehabilitation units over the past seven years. In response to growing demand, our rehab unit expanded from 24 to 40 beds in September 2024 and discharged nearly 700 patients in the last fiscal year. We care for a diverse and high-acuity patient population, including those recovering from traumatic and non-traumatic spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, transplants (liver, kidney, heart, lung), strokes, oncology-related conditions, amputations (including quad and upper extremity), and other complex neurological disorders. Our team is actively developing specialized programs for SCI and TBI, including disorders of consciousness, and we are deeply committed to continuous staff education and clinical excellence.
