For more than 60 years, Kessler Institute has pioneered the course of physical medicine and rehabilitation. Today, as the nation's largest single rehabilitation hospital, we continue to define this field — providing the highly specialized care, advanced treatment and leading-edge technologies that enable individuals with spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, stroke, amputation, neurological disorders, and musculoskeletal and orthopedic conditions to rebuild their lives.

Kessler is one of only seven centers in the country to receive federal designation as a Model System for the treatment and research of both spinal cord injury and brain injury treatment and research. That same level of expertise and experience distinguishes each of the comprehensive rehabilitation programs offered at our three New Jersey campuses. Perhaps that's one reason why U.S. News & World Report ranks Kessler as one of "America's Best Hospitals" and why, each year, thousands of individuals from across the country choose Kessler for their rehabilitation.

Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation, Inc. provides comprehensive physical medicine and rehabilitation programs and services to optimize the health, function and quality of life for those we serve. We enhance the delivery of care and advance the field of rehabilitation through education, research and advocacy. We do so in a clinically effective and fiscally responsible manner.

Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation is accredited by The Joint Commission. This accreditation applies to Kessler's three inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, as well as our more than 70 outpatient centers in New Jersey.

The Joint Commission is an independent organization that focuses on the safety and quality of care for persons treated at hospitals and health care facilities across the country.

The National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research has designated Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation as one of only seven Model Systems for traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury treatment and research.
