The Frances H. McClelland Rehabilitation Program at Phoenix Children's is Arizona's only acute inpatient rehabilitation facility dedicated exclusively to pediatric and adolescent care. As the largest and most comprehensive program of its kind in the region, our specialized team utilizes a multidisciplinary approach and delivers targeted therapies through cutting-edge technology. Our inpatient program serves as a crucial link in the continuum of recovery care, bridging the gap between intensive or acute care hospitals and the transition to home.
Our inpatient program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), reflecting our team’s commitment to providing the highest quality of care for young patients facing illness, injury or chronic disabilities. We are committed to continuous quality improvement.
