4.13.08 - The
Road to Recovery
Eighty-four-year-old Pearl Tenney Romney feels like a
bionic woman.
"I had a knee job," she says proudly, pointing to
her wrapped leg.
A few days after having a total knee replacement on March
25 at Yavapai Regional Medical Center West, she transferred
to northern Arizona's only freestanding rehabilitation
hospital. She said she knew she would be in good hands
because Mountain Valley Regional Rehabilitation Hospital,
3700 Windsong Drive, recently ranked in the top 10 percent
out of a total of 827 inpatient rehabilitation hospitals
in the running for the nationwide ranking. Uniform Data
System for Medical Rehabilitation, which is the world's
largest medical rehabilitation database, administers
the ranking. Click

9.1.06 - Yavapai
County's first free-standing Rehabilitation Hospital holds
public grand opening.
Mountain Valley Regional Rehabilitation
Hospital (MVRRH) will host a grand opening reception and open
house
on Thursday,
September 14 from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., with a dedication
and ribbon cutting ceremony at 4:00 p.m. The event will celebrate
the successful start-up of acute rehabilitation services and
completion of requirements for the licensing and certification
of Yavapai County’s only freestanding rehabilitation
hospital, serving all of central and northern Arizona.
MVRRH is a new facility, and the only one of its kind north
of the metro Phoenix area, providing inpatient and outpatient
rehabilitation services to patients with functional deficits
as a result of illness or debilitating injury such as stroke,
amputation, brain injury, spinal cord injury, hip fracture
or multiple trauma.
The facility features 40 patient beds, a 6,000 square foot
therapy gym equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, an aquatic
therapy pool, outdoor therapy courtyard, and the latest technology
for acute rehabilitation services.
“MVRRH employs a staff of close to 100, which is expected to
grow to 150 as the hospital swings into full operation,” said
Kevin Chavez, CEO. He believes that it is the staff that really
makes the difference in providing acute rehabilitative services
to the community.
“Our team members are not only highly qualified and experienced
in their fields of expertise, but they are passionate caregivers
as well,” Chavez said. “There is a lot of excitement
about opening our hospital and serving the needs of our community.”
The grand opening is being held a little over a year since
the groundbreaking for the facility. Construction began in
May of 2005 and was completed in May of 2006. MVRRH began accepting
their first patients the middle of June. In July, the Arizona
Department of Health established that MVRRH had met all the
requirements for licensing and certification of a brand new
hospital.
MVRRH is part of a network of post-acute care facilities operated
by Ernest Health, Inc., (EHI) an Albuquerque, New Mexico based
healthcare provider specializing in the development and operation
of rehabilitation and related post-acute healthcare facilities
in rural and under-served areas. EHI operates other facilities
in New Mexico, Texas, Colorado, Idaho and has a facility under
construction in Utah plus several others in the planning stages
in the western regions of the United States.
