Sinai Opens Beautiful New Neuro Rehab Center

It’s finally here, and wow, was it worth the wait!

On Wednesday, October 10, Sinai Hospital held a ribbon cutting dedication ceremony for its new Louis and Phyllis Friedman Neurological Rehabilitation Center. The 20-bed center, located on the fifth floor of the hospital’s South Tower, provides specialized rehabilitation services to adults who have sustained a brain injury, stroke or other neurological disorder, and it’s one of the most advanced facilities of its kind in the state.

The center offers a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to treatment, featuring the latest technology; a team of more than 40 doctors, nurses and therapists; and an emphasis on family-centered care. Highlights of the facility include:

• A dedicated nine-bed brain injury unit with the highest number of certified brain injury specialists in Maryland.
• A state-of-the-art gym filled with the most advanced technology to assist patients in their daily therapy, including a ZeroG gait and balance training system, an advanced tool that enables therapists to safely treat patients through a wide range of activities, and the latest generation of training devices for visual perception.
• A simulated community called “Greater Heights” that helps facilitate patients’ integration into their own community following discharge, featuring grocery store and bus stop settings and an ATM.
• A fully equipped home transition apartment that allows patients to replicate the activities they will be doing at home.
• Specially designed, private patient rooms that can be adjusted to a person’s particular therapy needs to help control levels of stimulation.
