EXPERT CARE WHEN YOU NEED IT THE MOST

The Good Shepherd-Wayne Memorial Inpatient Rehabilitation Center represents a partnership between Wayne Memorial Hospital and Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Network. Based in Allentown, Good Shepherd is a nationally recognized medical organization with services in 27 facilities throughout eastern and central Pennsylvania

Both Wayne Memorial and Good Shepherd are dedicated to helping patients return to a maximum level of independence. We offer comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation services for adults within the new unit at Wayne Memorial Hospital.

SERVICES

Each patient's evaluation and progress is directed and monitored by a physician who specializes in rehabilitative medicine (physiatry) and an interdisciplinary team consisting of a primary rehabilitation nurse; physical, occupational and speech therapists; and a social worker. When appropriate, a recreation therapy specialist, dietitian and member of the community's pastoral care network may serve on the team.

    OUR PATIENTS

    Patients admitted to the Rehabilitation Unit must be strong enough to maintain an intensive rehabilitation program for a minimum of three hours per day at least five days per week. Individual intensive rehabilitation programs are developed for each patient and the same treatment team treats the patient during his or her entire hospital stay.

    Patients can be admitted from an acute care hospital, a skilled nursing facility or from home. An evaluation of a potential patient can be arranged by calling the Administration office at the Good Shepherd-Wayne Memorial Inpatient Rehabilitation Center at (570) 253-8654.

    OUR ACCOMMODATIONS
     
     
  • 14 private & semi-private rooms with private bathrooms
  •  
  • Flat-screen TV in each room
  •  
  • Therapy Gym including fully functional kitchen/laundry/bath & shower

  • Dining/Recreation Area


  • LIBERAL VISITING HOURS

    Family members and caregivers are an important part of a successful rehabilitation team. Liberal visiting hours encourage family and friends to visit often and take an active role in therapy. Family members are encouraged to accompany patients to therapy sessions so they may learn new skills to help their loved one after returning home.



    OUTPATIENT REHABILITATION

    Following discharge from the Good Shepherd-Wayne Memorial Inpatient Rehabilitation Center, a patient may be able to go home or to a skilled nursing facility for continued rehabilitation. Our core team will coordinate outpatient services you need and resources you may require. Both Wayne Memorial Health System and Good Shepherd offer outpatient rehabilitation services at more than a dozen convenient locations.
