Diane Morrison

Diane Morrison is 89 years old and lives in West Lafayette, IN. She is an avid sports fan and particularly enjoys following Purdue University sports.

In January, Diane had a total right knee replacement. Before returning home, she needed comprehensive rehabilitation and medical care. Luckily on the same day of her surgery, she transferred to Lafayette Regional Rehabilitation Hospital to begin therapy.

Diane worked through three hours of therapy each day. She also received medical support from the LRRH physiatrist and nursing staff. Because of her hard work, Diane walked out of LRRH feeling confident about her return home.

“I can’t say enough about the staff at LRRH. They are compassionate, caring, and helped me reach my goals,” Diane stated.

Recognized Among Top 10% in the Nation

Lafayette Regional Rehabilitation Hospital has been named in the Top 10 percent of inpatient rehabilitation facilities in the United States for the 4th year in a row. The hospital’s care was cited as being as being patient-centered, effective, efficient and timely.

“We strive to deliver this higher level of care as our standard,” says Michelle Russell, CEO of Lafayette Regional Rehabilitation Hospital. “We have graciously been recognized as a top performing facility for many years now, but we never take it for granted. Our staff is exceptionally passionate about helping patients reach their full potential through the care we provide. We work daily to ensure patients are reaching their highest levels of ability and independence.”

Lafayette Regional Rehabilitation Hospital was ranked in the Top 10 percent from among 870 inpatient rehabilitation facilities nationwide by the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (UDSMR), a non-profit corporation that was developed with support from the U.S. Department of Education, National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research. The UDSMR maintains the world’s largest database of rehabilitation outcomes.

“If you take into account that a national study has previously shown that inpatient rehabilitation facilities provide better long-term results for patients, being ranked at the top of that group validates the quality of care we provide,” says Dr. Deepthi Cull, Medical Director of Lafayette Regional Rehabilitation Hospital, referencing a study commissioned by the ARA Research Institute that showed patients treated in inpatient facilities experienced improved quality of life as compared to skilled nursing facilities.

“To provide the highest level of rehabilitative care available to our own community is truly rewarding,” Cull says. “This means our family, friends, and colleagues don’t need to leave the area to receive this level of care.”

Through the UDSMR, Mountain Valley Regional Rehabilitation Hospital also will collaborate with peers throughout the nation to share information and establish best practices for patients. “This helps elevate rehabilitative care for everyone across the United States,” Cull says.

Lafayette Regional Rehabilitation Hospital provides specialized rehabilitative services to patients who are recovering from or living with disabilities caused by injuries, illnesses, or chronic medical conditions. This includes, but is not limited to, strokes, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, orthopedic injuries, cerebral palsy, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease), multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson’s disease.
