Complex Care Hospital at Ridgelake

About

Improving the lives of people with severe illness or injury takes more than skill and compassion - it takes innovation.

Story

The beautiful campus of Complex Care Hospital at Ridgelake, conveniently located off I-75 at exit 207, opened in June 2005 and has 40 licensed beds and a medical staff of more than 70 physicians. We are accredited by The Joint Commission and Medicare certified.

Our hospital specializes in the treatment of medically complex patients who require extended hospitalization. We are passionate about giving our patients the best chance at recovery from acute injury or illness by providing early and aggressive intervention in a critical care setting.

Our highly skilled treatment team includes physicians, nurses, pharmacists, nutritionists and therapists across a range of disciplines — physical, speech, occupational, respiratory and psychological therapy. We believe this interdisciplinary approach helps speed physical, emotional and spiritual recovery.

Mission

We are building a company that cares for each patient's body, mind and soul.

At LifeCare, we believe sharing expertise and information across medical disciplines is key to developing a treatment plan that fully addresses a patient's recovery - not simply one aspect of it.

Each treatment team is directed by a highly-skilled physician and includes experts in areas such as nursing, respiratory therapy, pharmacy, physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, case management, nutritional services, recreational therapy, social services and psychological services. Patients and family members are important members of the treatment team and are encouraged to participate in all aspects of care.
