LifeCare Hospitals of Pittsburgh opened this location within Alle-Kiski Medical Center in Natrona Heights in October of 2010. The 35-bed facility brings specialized long term acute care services to Northeast Pittsburgh. Modern, high-tech equipment enhance the expert care delivered to the medically complex patients we serve.
We are building a company that cares for each patient's body, mind and soul.
At LifeCare, we believe sharing expertise and information across medical disciplines is key to developing a treatment plan that fully addresses a patient's recovery - not simply one aspect of it.
Each treatment team is directed by a highly-skilled physician and includes experts in areas such as nursing, respiratory therapy, pharmacy, physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, case management, nutritional services, recreational therapy, social services and psychological services. Patients and family members are important members of the treatment team and are encouraged to participate in all aspects of care.
