Millions of Americans find themselves in need of physical rehabilitation every year as they recover from injury or surgery or deal with pain or loss of motion from chronic conditions. When looking for care, they have a lot of choices. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are over 230,000 physical therapists working in the U.S. and tens of thousands of facilities employing them. Finding the right place can be a challenge. That's why Newsweek has again partnered with global market research and data firm Statista Inc. to rank the country's Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers.
This year we've awarded 255 inpatient facilities, based on the results of an online survey of over 4,400 experts on physical rehabilitation.
The awards are on a state basis. For the first time, physical rehabilitation centers from every U.S. state were included. The 25 states with the most facilities were awarded individually and the remaining states were grouped into four regions: Northeast, Midwest, West and South.
The total number of awardees varies per state due to different numbers of total facilities in each state. In general, we awarded roughly the top 20 percent of facilities in each state or region. Survey participants were also able to specify a standout program (amputation, brain injury, cancer, spinal cord injury or stroke) for the recommended facilities. We hope you find this ranking helpful in making your own choices. ► Nancy Cooper, Global Editor in Chief
