Kindred Hospital Melbourne and Acute Rehabilitation Unit (ARU) is 58-bed hospital offering the same in depth care you would receive in a traditional hospital, but for an extended recovery period. With 47 long-term acute care (LTAC) hospital beds, we partner with your physician and offer 24-hour clinical care seven days a week so you can start your journey to wellness. Similarly, our 11-bed ARU is designed for people who have experienced the debilitating effects of an acute injury, impairment or illness. Located off of NASA Boulevard on the outskirts of downtown Melbourne, we are less than two miles from the shores of the Indian River and plenty of shops and restaurants.
Patients come to our hospitals with serious conditions such as respiratory failure, complex wounds, sepsis, stroke, congestive heart failure, or even a combination of these. Their diagnoses are often complicated by existing health problems like diabetes or COPD. Many of our patients require treatments such as mechanical ventilators, dialysis, or IV therapy.
Our Acute Rehabilitation Unit (ARU) is located on the second floor of Kindred Hospital Melbourne. Our inpatient rehabilitation services are designed for people who have experienced the debilitating effects of an acute injury, impairment, or illness. The goal is to help each individual function as independently as possible through specialized treatment programs for conditions including stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, orthopedic injury, neurological conditions, amputation, and trauma.
