OUR STORY

For more than 80 years we’ve been a healthcare focal point in Saginaw and surrounding communities. HealthSource Saginaw has changed and transformed to meet the needs of those we serve – from tuberculosis patients in the 1930s…to those seeking long-term care or recovery from surgery, debilitating illness or injury, chemical dependency, or mental health issues today.

We are a rehabilitation/recovery hospital. There is no one like us in the region offering the scope of services from short-term care to a lifetime of care.

    Our Beach Neighborhood provides care for up to 18 inpatient medical rehabilitation patients, each receiving around-the-clock nursing care as well as rigorous therapy to help them rebuild their lifestyle after serious injury, illness, or major surgery. Occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, and recreational therapists work as a team with neuropsychologist, physiatrists, rehabilitation nurses, nursing aides, social workers, and case managers.

    All patient rooms have accessible private bathrooms with showers, flat screen TVs, and pleasant views to the landscaped grounds. Our Home Room — donated by Field Neurosciences Institute — is an apartment-style suite patients and families can use to practice the skills required to return to independent living prior to discharge from their rehabilitation program. The Home Room features a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom. We encourage family members to spend the night to see firsthand how the transition home will be, while still having experienced staff available to troubleshoot any issues that may arise.
