Ascension St. John Rehabilitation Hospital, a 40-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital, now open in Owasso, Oklahoma

In addition to 24-hour nursing care, Ascension St. John Rehabilitation Hospital offers physical, occupational and speech therapies to restore functional ability and quality of life. Care is provided by highly specialized nurses, therapists and physicians. The hospital features all private patient rooms, a large therapy gym with advanced rehabilitation technologies, an activities of daily living suite, and an on-site dialysis suite.

“We are excited to open this new hospital in Owasso and honored to serve even more patients in the greater Tulsa area through this joint venture between Encompass Health and Ascension St. John,” said Harlo McCall, CEO of Ascension St. John Rehabilitation Hospital. “Both Ascension St. John and Encompass Health have a proven track record of quality, patient and family satisfaction and are united in our mission to providing compassionate care. We will provide essential rehabilitation services to help patients regain function and independence as they recover from major injuries and illnesses, and we look forward to positively impacting the lives of many.”

The hospital is an expansion of the joint venture partnership between Ascension St. John and Encompass Health. The joint venture also includes St. John Rehabilitation Hospital, an inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Broken Arrow which opened in 2016. Due to an increased demand for rehabilitation services, the hospital expanded from 40 to 60 beds in 2019.

Ascension St. John Rehabilitation Hospital is Encompass Health’s 156th inpatient rehabilitation hospital, and its second location in Oklahoma.
