PAM Health has announced plans to develop a 42-bed physical medicine and rehabilitation hospital in Fayetteville, N.C. PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Fayetteville will be one of four new PAM Health inpatient rehabilitation hospitals currently planned in the state, complementing the services offered at PAM Health Specialty Hospital of Rocky Mount. The new hospital will have a positive impact on the local economy as it is expected to generate approximately 200 jobs, including clinical, administrative and support staff positions.

"As we continue to expand our footprint in North Carolina, this new hospital reflects our steadfast commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centered rehabilitation services," said Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of PAM Health Anthony Misitano in a press release. "According to the US Census Bureau North Carolina maintains its status as the 9th most populated state in the country and is considered one of the fastest growing states in the U.S. We are proud to extend our impact in the community by providing best-in-class rehabilitative care to patients throughout the developing Fayetteville Region."

Once open, the new location will deliver comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation services, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy. These personalized treatment programs are designed to accelerate recovery and optimize patient outcomes by using state-of-the-art technologies, highly specialized care plans and innovative approaches to care. The hospital will serve individuals recovering from a broad range of complex conditions, including traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries, stroke and other neurological disorders, cardiac conditions, amputations, severe illnesses and orthopedic or post-surgical needs. Patients can continue their progress after discharging home by returning for outpatient therapy, thus extending the continuum of care and potential for success.

In addition, PAM Health offers nationally recognized workers' compensation rehabilitation programs known for helping injured employees achieve maximum recovery and restore functional independence. With the Fayetteville area's growing regional economy, PAM Health is positioned to provide these vital, specialized return-to-work solutions for employees and businesses in the area.
