Hi, Long term care may offer short term rehab, but in my experience (10 years) it seems that most are simply ecf's. I don't know if you are in a free-standing unit or one attached to the hospital; those that are in-hospital usually have a good rehab staff and are more focused on getting the patients home. I work in a free-standing acute rehab hospital. It is more interesting because we see a variety of ages and types of injuries. CVA's, TBI's, SCI's, severe trauma. HOWEVER one thing you have to keep in mind about acute rehab is that it is very physical work. I hope that this gives you some info, if you have followup questions let me know! Maria
