Outpatient Rehabilitation
Outpatient rehabilitation is a key component of recovery for those with injuries or conditions that affect mobility, function or speech. At The University of Kansas Health System, we offer a complete range of outpatient rehabilitation services. Our programs provide comprehensive, compassionate and customized care to help you reach your goals.

Who needs outpatient rehabilitation?
Our outpatient rehabilitation program offers short-term and long-term services. Some patients who participate in outpatient rehabilitation have completed inpatient rehab and have left the hospital after an illness or injury. Others are home, but want to improve their mobility, ease pain or avoid surgery.
