Ascension Saint Thomas and Lifepoint Rehabilitation, a business unit of Lifepoint Health, announced that they have received state regulatory approval of a Certificate of Need to construct a new 40-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
The new hospital will be located adjacent to the Ascension Saint Thomas Rutherford hospital campus. The partners anticipate breaking ground later this year and opening the hospital in 2027.
This will be the second rehabilitation hospital operated through a joint venture partnership between Ascension Saint Thomas and Lifepoint Rehabilitation. The partners also operate Ascension Saint Thomas Rehabilitation Hospital in Nashville.
Upon completion, Lifepoint Rehabilitation will manage day-to-day operations of the hospital, which will provide intensive nursing, physical and occupational therapy, and speech pathology services for adults recovering from conditions such as stroke, neurological disease, brain or spinal cord injury and other debilitating illnesses or injuries.
