Select Medical Corporation and SSM Health have announced a joint venture to establish the SSM Health Rehabilitation Hospital – Oklahoma City, a 50-bed inpatient rehabilitation facility located at 700 NW 7th Street. This hospital will incorporate SSM Health’s existing 12-bed acute rehabilitation unit from St. Anthony Hospital and is set to open in December 2024.
“Our mission drives us to continuously seek ways to better serve our communities,” said Joe Hodges, SSM Health Oklahoma Regional President. “We are excited to deepen our partnership with Select Medical and enhance access to high-quality rehabilitation services in the region.”
Select Medical and SSM Health have collaborated since 2009, operating three inpatient rehabilitation hospitals in Missouri, alongside numerous outpatient physical therapy centers and rehabilitation day institutes in the St. Louis area.
“Having successfully partnered for 15 years in St. Louis, expanding into Oklahoma City was a natural decision,” said Tom Mullin, president of Select Medical. “We are eager to address the growing post-acute care needs of Oklahoma City and its surrounding communities.”
Select Medical will be the majority owner and managing partner of the new joint venture.
