I work in a Rehab hospital considered sub acute, but you couldn't tell that by the patients we have, which is owned and operated by our Health system which comprises 5 other hospitals one of which is a Level 2 Trauma Hosp, which we are within their building. A Children's Hospital, and 2 other acute care hospital one of which specialized in Cardiology ( open heart) and Womans issue with birthing center etc.
There are skilled nursing facilities which have so called rehab units, but they are different.
