Kindred Hospital Greensboro is a long-term acute care hospital (LTACH), also called a specialty hospital, that provides hospital-level care for patients recovering from serious illnesses, injuries, or surgeries. The facility offers 24/7 physician or physician extender coverage along with respiratory therapy access to support around-the-clock recovery.
The hospital has 101 beds and includes an Intensive Care Unit for patients in critical condition, allowing individuals to progress to a less intense level of care as they improve. It holds Joint Commission Certifications in Respiratory Failure and Sepsis, reflecting a standardized, evidence-based approach to treatment and performance improvement.
Patients typically arrive with serious conditions such as respiratory failure, complex wounds, sepsis, stroke, or congestive heart failure, often complicated by existing health issues like diabetes or COPD. Many require treatments such as mechanical ventilation, respiratory therapy, dialysis, or IV therapy. A Subacute Unit within the hospital serves patients who need short-term comprehensive inpatient medical care and rehabilitation after a short-term illness, injury, or worsening disease—individuals who no longer need traditional hospital-level care but are not yet ready to return home.
Care at Kindred Hospital Greensboro is physician-led, with daily physician visits and acute care nurse-to-patient ratios, along with hospital-level services including dialysis and an on-site pharmacy. The hospital offers advanced clinical programs such as early mobility and complex wound care, and provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy while patients continue to receive acute care, with care plans tailored to each patient's condition and recovery goals rather than fixed minimum therapy requirements.
As part of a nationwide network of long-term acute care hospitals, Kindred Hospital Greensboro focuses on interdisciplinary, physician-led care aimed at helping medically complex patients regain independence and transition toward home or a lower level of care, such as an acute rehabilitation facility.
