ABOUT SILVER LAKE HOSPITAL

Silver Lake Hospital is a long-term acute care hospital with a reputation of providing patients with a place to heal before heading home. A long-term acute care hospital (LTACH) is an acute care specialty hospital that provides highly advanced and focused care for higher acuity patients who have not responded to short-term treatment in traditional general hospitals. The average length of stay in an LTACH is 25 days as compared to a 3-5 day average stay in a general hospital. Our safe and state of the art hospital is designed to admit and care for the most critically ill patients.

We pride ourselves as being a leader in the LTACH community by recruiting and retaining the finest talent possible. This is why we offer top pay, great benefits, and awesome perks. Our management also takes the time to train staff members and is very hands-on and knowledgeable.
