Inpatient is a term that refers to a patient who is admitted to a hospital for at least one overnight stay while they receiving medical care.

Outpatient refers to a patient who goes to a medical clinic, therapy session or doctor’s appointment, but they are not hospitalized and do not stay overnight.

Home health is medical care provided in your home. In order to receive home health, you must be homebound and unable to leave your house.

Our inpatient rehabilitation facilities are all staffed by board-certified physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians. Nursing and therapy staff members are also licensed and certified in specialties specific to medical rehabilitation. We provide a more intensive therapy schedule that’s overseen on a daily basis by your physician. Nursing home facilities do not provide the same level of experience and intensive therapy that Baylor Scott & White Rehabilitation does.

Our outpatient therapy centers are staffed by only licensed therapists. Many of our therapists hold advanced degrees in physical, occupational or speech therapy. Our staff also includes many board-certified specialty therapists credentialed in a number of different disciplines.

We only provide evidence-based treatments that are covered by most insurance policies, referred by physicians and administered by licensed clinical therapists.
