PMB and El Camino Health with Lifepoint Rehabilitation, a business unit of Lifepoint Health, broke ground on a new inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Sunnyvale, California. The El Camino Health Rehabilitation Hospital is an inpatient rehabilitation facility that will expand access to specialized care in a setting built specifically to support healing and recovery. Construction on the 64,000 square-foot, 52-bed HCAI 1 project began, and the new facility is scheduled to start taking patients in the spring of 2027.
The project is designed with a patient-centered approach that will provide a safe and therapeutic environment for individuals in need of comprehensive rehabilitation services.
This new inpatient rehabilitation facility will feature 52 all-private rooms with full bathrooms, including specialty care patient rooms. It will provide acute adult inpatient care for individuals recovering from strokes, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and other severe conditions. Key clinical services will include physical and occupational therapies, speech pathology services, and specialized programs dedicated to neurological, stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury and amputation rehabilitation.
A key feature of the new hospital will be a secured brain injury unit with private dining and a dedicated therapy gym. Additionally, while in treatment, patients will benefit from large interdisciplinary gyms and a therapeutic courtyard featuring golf, gardens and varied surfaces designed to enhance mobility training. The facility will also include a transitional living apartment, designed to simulate a residential environment, where patients can practice daily living tasks in preparation for a smooth transition back home. El Camino Health will provide a suite of ancillary and support services, including laboratory services, radiology, security, employee health, medical staff credentialing, biomedical engineering, and managed care contracting.
The team for the project includes PMB as developer, Material Design Architects as architect, Truebeck as design-builder.
