MOSSREHAB PATIENT OUTCOMES1
JANUARY 2007-DECEMBER 2007
MossRehab is very proud of the outcomes achieved by patients who are admitted to our inpatient facilities in Elkins Park,
on Tabor Road, and at Frankford and Sacred Heart.
In all of MossRehab’s programs, the functional improvement of our patients exceeds both regional and national averages. As
a result, MossRehab is able to discharge more patients back to their home and community than regional and national averages.
