Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Hospital for Special Care is a 236-Bed Rehabilitation and Chronic Disease hospital, serving patients in these primary areas: Inpatient and Outpatient Rehabilitation.

  • Inpatient Care: Rehabilitation Services include programs for those recovering from a life-threatening condition, debilitating injury or suffering from acute chronic illness. HFSC provides interdisciplinary care for patients with amputations, neurological conditions, orthopedic diagnoses, musculoskeletal diagnoses, multiple trauma, and complications from prolonged hospitalizations. Complex medical and rehabilitation care provide a wide range of services designed to maximize the outcomes of patients who no longer need invasive or acute diagnostic procedures, but who continue to require 24-hour nursing and medical care and/or monitoring. We also provide comprehensive care for individuals who require complex wound management. HFSC treats all levels of spinal cord dysfunction through its continuum of care and interdisciplinary therapies to pain management and community re-entry. A comprehensive treatment plan is tailored to each individual by a dedicated rehabilitation team led by the medical director. The Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) program treats individuals with traumatic brain injuries (i.e., aneurysm, anoxia, tumors) with the goal to maximize patients functional status, independence, psychosocial adjustment and vocational and leisure skills, including community reintegration. The Neurobehavioral Program (NBP) is a long-term, 25 bed inpatient rehabilitation program that specializes in the treatment of individuals who have sustained an acquired brain injury and have been unsuccessful living in the community or in other facilities. The purpose of the NBP is to assist these individuals in managing their independence and to improve their overall quality of life. HFSC's Cardiac Medical Unit consists of treatment, therapy and education for patients who are striving to regain, or maintain their functional ability while dealing with the complications from heart failure (30,126 Patient Days).

    Expenses $29,016,608 · Revenue $40,900,294

  • Inpatient Care: Respiratory Services include caring for people who have made conscious decisions to live on life support. These patients require significant medical attention along with services to enhance quality of life. Our goal is to liberate patients from ventilator dependency so that they can resume their lives. The hospital for special care is recognized for having the highest ventilator-weaning rate in Connecticut and consistently exceeds the national average. Services for the clinical management of patients with serious respiratory conditions are provided on three distinct units. HSC's 36-bed Laurie Coleman Puglisi respiratory care unit and the 38-bed respiratory step-down unit provide care for patients with multi-system problems and ventilator assistance (27,183 Patient Days).

    Expenses $23,923,683 · Revenue $40,808,163

  • The Maximilian E. & Marion O. Hoffman Foundation Outpatient Center is designed to meet the needs of patients that require assistance but do not require hospitalization. Whether from illness, surgery or injury, therapy may be needed to improve muscle strength, coordination and mobility. The Center offers a comprehensive team approach provided by our highly-skilled physical and occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists. Outpatient Programs include Aquatic Therapy, Autism Services, Body Weight Support Elliptical Trainer, Concussion Management, Physical Therapy, Psychology and Neuropsychology Services, Occupational Therapy, Orthotics Program, Pulmonary Rehab, Speech Therapy, Swallowing Disorders Center, Neuromuscular Clinic including Parkinson's Clinic (54,040 Visits)

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.
