Groundbreaking set for new rehab hospital in Cleveland that will bring 100 health care jobs

CLEVELAND – ClearSky Health will break ground Tuesday on a new 36-bed medical rehabilitation hospital in the village of Cleveland.

ClearSky Rehabilitation Hospital Lakeshore will provide specialized, rehabilitative care to about 650 patients annually who are living with disabling injuries or illnesses such as strokes, brain injuries, hip fractures, spinal injuries, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis or other medically complex conditions.

The hospital’s services will differ from other rehabilitative programs, providing a level of care that’s available only through medical rehabilitation hospitals, according to a news release from ClearSky.

Patients will receive individualized care from a physician-led interdisciplinary health care team that includes physical, occupational and speech therapists; rehabilitative nurses; case managers; respiratory therapists; dietitians; and other health care professionals.

The new building will feature all private rooms, a rehabilitative gym with specialized equipment, a therapeutic courtyard, a dining room with a dedicated chef, as well as space to emulate home conditions and to practice daily living tasks.

The ClearSky rehab hospital is expected to create about 100 new health care jobs. It's expected to open in fall 2025.

The groundbreaking is set for 10:30 a.m. Tuesday at 7929 North Ave., Cleveland. The event is free and open to the public.
