UCI Health and Kindred Rehabilitation Services, a unit of LifePoint Health, have formed a joint venture to construct and operate a 52-bed, 68,000 sq. ft. inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Orange County, CA. The hospital will employ up to 200 and will be located in Irvine.
The hospital will treat patients recovering from conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain and spinal cord injury, as well as trauma, burn and orthopedics patients. KRS will manage the hospital’s day-to-day operations, and patients will receive leading care provided by UCI Health physicians and clinical staff, all in private rooms and state-of-the-art rehabilitation facilities. The partners expect construction on the approximately $80 million inpatient hospital to begin by December and begin admitting patients in late 2025. Read more.
