The Rehabilitation Unit is located on the 5 East Nursing Unit of the University Of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System. We have 18 inpatient beds dedicated exclusively to acute inpatient rehabilitation. Therapy takes place in patient rooms, in designated therapy areas on 5 East Nursing Unit, and in an extensive rehabilitation facility on the Concourse Level of the hospital that includes a simulated living environment, working kitchen and body weight support treadmill training system.

Outpatient Physical and Occupational Therapy
The goal of our outpatient physical and occupational therapists is to directly address the problems that are interfering with your ability to perform activities important to you. We also want to make sure you know how to prevent future problems. Whether your goal is to walk again, to get back to work, or to get back to your sport; our physical and occupational therapists will show you how to get there.
From prosthetic training to pediatric developmental evaluation, we offer one of the broadest ranges of physical and occupational therapy services in the country. Without access, though, our services would be useless. We designed our facilities and office hours to meet the needs of the community.
* Our outpatient facility is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. On Tuesday we are open 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Friday from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
* We offer Saturday appointments from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
