This LA Times story highlights the struggle that local hospitals are having with finding enough beds for all of the current patients in need and the important work of discharge planners. Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center is doing it's part by taking in patients from the other three county public hospitals to help lighten their load but ...in doing so have begun to get dangerously close to capacity as well.

Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center has been at the cutting edge of rehabilitation and therapy over it's entire, long history of serving those who have experienced a traumatic brain injury, spinal-cord injury, stroke (or even Polio during the outbreak in the late 1940's through the mid 1950's). It's fascinating to see how we've advanced in so many ways over the years but how some things that work, like adaptive outdoor therapies such as horse back riding, have remained largely unchanged. #rollwithrancho #ranchorehab #ranchofoundation #rancholosamigos #horsebackriding #therapy #rehabilitation #spinalcordinjury #braininjury #stroke #strokesurvivor #polio #history #ThrowbackThursday #TBT #downey
