Our acute services are centered out of Samaritan's Regional Medical system, a 160 bed, level 2 trauma center. Our hub status affords us a complex patient census that is among the state's top 5 in acuity. Our outpatient clinic features cutting edge equipment, a therapy pool with an underwater treadmill and separate adult and pediatric gyms. We also offer outpatient services at the Pastega Regional Cancer Center. All outpatient services are one-on-one and feature therapist-driven treatment times.
