AtlantiCare, in partnership with Select Medical, opened a new 60‑bed rehabilitation hospital in Galloway, New Jersey, this year. The facility is designed to deliver specialized inpatient rehabilitation services to patients throughout South Jersey, offering a range of therapies and medical support under one roof.
The joint effort between AtlantiCare and Select Medical brings together AtlantiCare’s regional health network and Select Medical’s expertise in post‑acute care. The new hospital adds 60 dedicated beds for patients requiring intensive rehabilitation after surgery, injury, or illness. The partnership emphasizes coordinated care, with both organizations contributing resources and clinical staff to ensure a seamless treatment experience.
For residents of South Jersey, the opening reduces the necessity of traveling to distant facilities for comprehensive rehab services. Previously, many patients had to seek inpatient rehabilitation in other counties or states, adding time and cost to their recovery. By situating a full‑service rehab hospital within Galloway, the region now has immediate access to the specialized care needed for conditions such as joint replacement recovery, stroke rehabilitation, and complex wound management.
The hospital’s presence also supports local healthcare capacity, aligning with broader efforts to expand medical services in the area. While the facility’s primary focus is inpatient rehabilitation, it is expected to collaborate with surrounding acute‑care hospitals to streamline patient transitions from surgery or emergency care to the rehabilitation setting. The addition of 60 beds represents a significant increase in available rehab capacity, addressing a documented demand for such services in South Jersey.
As the hospital begins operations, AtlantiCare and Select Medical plan to monitor patient outcomes and adjust service offerings to meet community needs. The new center aims to become a regional hub for rehabilitation, providing patients with the resources required for a full recovery without leaving their home region.
