SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL IS HIGHLY FOCUSED ON SPECIFIC PATIENT NEEDS. COMMONLY KNOWN AS A LONG-TERM ACUTE CARE HOSPITAL (LTACH), SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL IS WORTH CONSIDERING FOR PEOPLE EXPERIENCING A WIDE RANGE OF SERIOUS MEDICAL ILLNESSES, INCLUDING RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS. OPEN SINCE APRIL 2004, SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL IS LANSING'S FIRST AND ONLY LTACH FACILITY. THE HOSPITAL TREATS ADULTS RECOVERING FROM MAJOR ILLNESS OR INJURIES THAT TYPICALLY REQUIRE AN AVERAGE EXPECTED STAY OF 25 DAYS. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL WAS SPECIFICALLY CREATED TO PROVIDE PATIENTS THE OPPORTUNITY OF TIME FOR HEALING. THE HOSPITAL IS A 30-BED, COMMUNITY-BASED, NON-PROFIT HOSPITAL LOCATED ON THE EIGHTH FLOOR OF THE TOWER ON EW SPARROW HOSPITAL'S MAIN CAMPUS. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL WAS CREATED TO FILL A GAP IN MEDICAL TREATMENT FOR THE PEOPLE OF MID-MICHIGAN. BEFORE THEN, PATIENTS WHO WERE LOOKING FOR A LONG-TERM ACUTE CARE FACILITY HAD TO BE MOVED TO GRAND RAPIDS, JACKSON, OR DETROIT CREATING A BURDEN FOR FAMILY MEMBERS WHO HAD TO TRAVEL LONG DISTANCES TO VISIT THEM. OUR PATIENTS HAVE A HIGH LEVEL OF DAILY CONTACT WITH PHYSICIANS AND A HIGHLY SKILLED NURSING STAFF. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL PROVIDES CARE FOR PATIENTS WHO ARE RECOVERING FROM MULTIPLE SURGERIES AND THOSE WITH MULTIPLE ORGAN SYSTEM FAILURE. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL USES AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO MAXIMIZE EACH PATIENT'S RECOVERY POTENTIAL. SERVICES INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: - 24-HOUR PROFESSIONAL NURSING CARE - 24-HOUR RESPIRATORY THERAPY - OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY - PHYSICAL THERAPY - SPEECH THERAPY - DISCHARGE PLANNING/CASE MANAGEMENT - IN-PATIENT PHARMACEUTICAL SERVICES - NUTRITIONAL SERVICES - DIALYSIS - VENTILATOR SUPPORT - WOUND CARE - PHYSICIAN SPECIALTY SERVICES - PASTORAL CARE ADDITIONAL SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE UNDER A CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENT WITH EW SPARROW HOSPITAL. THESE SERVICES INCLUDE LABORATORY SERVICES, MEDICAL IMAGING AND INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY, SURGICAL SERVICES AND CARDIOLOGY SERVICES. WITH AN AGING POPULATION AND ADVANCES IN TECHNOLOGY, PATIENTS HAVE OPPORTUNITIES TO LIVE LONGER. THEREFORE, RECOGNIZING THE NEED FOR COMPLEX MEDICAL CARE THAT LASTS LONGER THAN THE TRADITIONAL HOSPITAL STAY, SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL WAS DESIGNED AS AN ADDITIONAL COMPONENT OF THE CONTINUUM OF CARE PROVIDED AT SPARROW HEALTH SYSTEM TO CONTINUE THE HEALING PROCESS. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL IS FULLY ACCREDITED BY THE JOINT COMMISSION. WE FOCUS ON SPECIFIC TYPES OF SERIOUSLY ILL PEOPLE WITH UNIQUE NEEDS. THIS MEANS OUR STAFF MEMBERS ARE HIGHLY SPECIALIZED IN THEIR FIELD OF TRAINING AND CAN PROVIDE AN EXTREMELY CONCENTRATED LEVEL OF CARE. THIS DEGREE OF SPECIALIZATION MEANS PEOPLE IN NEED OF A HIGH LEVEL OF CARE CAN BENEFIT FROM THE LATEST AND MOST ADVANCED MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY AT OUR FACILITY. ADMISSION TO SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL IS BASED UPON THE PATIENT'S NEED FOR THIS LEVEL OF CARE, VIA PHYSICIAN REFERRAL, OUR ADMISSIONS SPECIALIST OR THE PATIENT OR THEIR REPRESENTATIVE. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL ONLY ADMITS PATIENTS WHO WILL BENEFIT FROM THE TYPE OF CARE WE PROVIDE. BECAUSE OF THE LONG-TERM NATURE OF MOST PATIENTS' ILLNESSES, FAMILY MEMBERS AND PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES ARE ENCOURAGED TO PARTICIPATE IN INTERDISCIPLINARY TEAM DECISIONS REGARDING CARE. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL'S GOAL IS TO PROVIDE AGGRESSIVE TREATMENT AND ACUTE CARE TO PATIENTS SUFFERING FROM A VARIETY OF UNFORTUNATE INCIDENTS AND/OR LATE STAGE ILLNESS PROGRESSION. OUR APPROACH TO PROVIDE ACUTE MEDICAL CARE AND THERAPY SERVICES HAND-IN-HAND OVER EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME IS BETTER FOR THE PATIENT, PROVIDING IMPROVED PATIENT OUTCOMES AND REDUCED MEDICAL COSTS OVERALL. EARLY TRANSFER FROM A TRADITIONAL ACUTE CARE HOSPITAL'S CRITICAL CARE UNIT TO SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL DRASTICALLY DECREASES LONG-TERM SETBACKS FOR PATIENTS DUE TO DEBILITATION, MUSCLE ATROPHY AND INFECTIONS. SPARROW SPECIALTY HOSPITAL IS COMMITTED TO "CONTINUING THE HEALING PROCESS" WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
