University City Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center

University City Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center sits at 3609 Chestnut Street in Philadelphia's University City, where you'll find a mix of hospital-style care and rehabilitation services for seniors. The place cares for people who need post-acute or skilled nursing services, short-term rehab, or long-term stays, and it's part of Penn Medicine, which means it's tied into a well-known health system. The center offers a range of clinical care, with a multidisciplinary staff including SNF occupational therapists and a team of physicians and nurses who look after each resident with a focus on both health and comfort. They keep records organized through medical records coordination and manage supplies from a central location inside the building, which used to be The New Ralston House and now serves the area's geriatric needs in a mixed-use setup. With 51-200 employees, the center provides personalized treatment plans, and it aims to help people recover and return home whenever possible. Along with skilled nursing and rehab, people can get on-site kidney dialysis, long-term care services, and Urgent SNF™ stabilization, ensuring 24/7 supervision for those who need it most. The campus is convenient for families living in Philadelphia, and the leadership talks about plans for full renovations in the near future. Amenities and features are built with patient care in mind, focusing on cozy comfort and a sense of home. The center's comprehensive rehabilitation program works to restore independence, and staff take a proactive approach to meeting individuals' rehab and health needs. The center runs as a privately held company, established in 2022, and is always looking for ways to create a better, more revitalizing recovery experience for everyone in their care, putting a lot of attention on wellness and improving quality of life.
