Everest Rehabilitation Hospitals to Build OK Medical Facility

By Alex Ciorogar

Everest Rehabilitation Hospitals LLC will build a $23 million, 40,000-square-foot rehabilitation hospital in southeast Oklahoma City. The development is slated to accommodate more than 100 employees.

The 36-bedroom medical facility will be constructed on a 9-acre site. The project is slated for completion in spring 2019.

Amenities will include:

• luxurious private baths
• inpatient and outpatient gyms
• an outdoor mobility courtyard
• aqua therapy
• training apartment with kitchen and bath
• gathering areas
• dining hall
• in-house dialysis center
• in-house pharmacy

“Our enormous level of care in our acute rehabilitation hospital setting cannot be provided at other levels of care such as skilled nursing facilities or nursing homes,” said Jay Quintana, CEO of Everest Rehabilitation Hospitals LLC, in a prepared statement. “We provide one-to-one therapy, five to seven days a week, daily medical visits by rehab physicians and a nurse patient ratio that contributes to the optimal outcomes and the highest quality of care.”

Interstate 240 is easily accessible from the site. Tinker Airforce Base is also located nearby.
