Johns Hopkins Bayview Comprehensive Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit

At the Johns Hopkins Bayview Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit, our mission is to provide comprehensive inpatient, team-based rehabilitation to improve the health, function and well-being of our patients. Our 33-bed inpatient rehabilitation unit offers inpatient physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language therapy for patients who require intensive rehabilitation, including specialty programs in geriatric and stroke rehabilitation.

A team of experts, including an on-site physical medicine and rehabilitation physician, works together to help patients regain function, become as independent as possible and return to a community setting. Our adult and stroke specialty rehabilitation programs are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) and The Joint Commission.

Specialized Programs

The Johns Hopkins Bayview Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit has several specialty programs available to patients throughout their stay:

Yoga Program

Patients practice yoga guided by a trained yoga professional, with support from our therapists. These sessions are adapted to personal rehabilitation goals and condition, while promoting standing tolerance, balance, breath support, confidence, posture and mobility.
