While staying at inpatient rehabilitation centers, patients receive hands-on treatment that can drastically improve their quality of life. Multidisciplinary teams—which typically include physical and occupational therapists-work to reduce patients' symptoms and equip them for life after discharge. There are more than 1,100 of these facilities in the United States, so identifying the best fit can prove challenging. To help patients weigh their options, Newsweek has partnered with data intelligence platform Statista to rank America's Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers. The annual list, now in its fifth edition, awards the top 300 inpatient physical rehabilitation facilities in the U.S. Each center was assigned a score based on quality metrics, accreditation data, a national survey of industry experts and Google reviews from patients. To help patients narrow their search further, centers were sorted by geographic area. The 25 states with the most facilities were ranked individually, and facilities from the remaining states were grouped into four regions. These physical rehabilitation centers are the best of the best for patients needing a higher level of care, and Newsweek and Statista are proud to recognize them.
The 5th edition of America's Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers ranking awards the leading 300 inpatient physical rehabilitation facilities in the U.S. The physical rehabilitation centers were identified according to the definition of Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. IRFs are freestanding rehabilitation hospitals and rehabilitation units in acute care hospitals. Centers which offer outpatient physical rehabilitation services only were excluded.
