Lawrence Rehab Hospital Launches Orthopedic Recovery Program with Premium Accommodations in Lawrence Twp.

Lawrence Rehabilitation Hospital in Lawrence Twp. has introduced OrthoWIN, a highly specialized subacute care program for orthopedic recovery, alongside newly renovated, hospitality-style patient accommodations. Dr. Madhu Jain, a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) specialist who serves as Lawrence Rehab Hospital’s medical director, is leading the initiative.

The PM&R-centered OrthoWIN care model caters to those recovering from a range of orthopedic surgeries and injuries; it is ideal for patients with co-morbidities and those without the social support to recover at home independently. PM&R, also known as Physiatry, focuses on the restoration of health and function with an integrated treatment plan including pain management and physical therapy.

“OrthoWIN responds to a direct call from healthcare systems for this type of skilled nursing specialization,” said Christina Albano, regional director of market development at Marquis Health Consulting Services, which supports Lawrence Rehab Hospital. “The goal is to help its area hospital partners address the growing volume of joint replacement care and fracture care patients who are unable to transition directly home following a surgery or injury.”

According to Albano, Lawrence Rehab Hospital’s spacious and private OrthoSUITES recovery rooms are designed to facilitate healing and relaxation. Premium amenities include a mini fridge, Keurig coffee maker, television with Netflix streaming service and daily newspaper delivery. A 24/7 guest services hospitality line is available to address needs and concerns.

"OrthoSUITES positions Lawrence as a distinctive recovery option within the marketplace,” added Albano. “These beautiful rooms and top-notch amenities complement Lawrence’s OrthoWIN expert care to facilitate a smooth, restful healing process and promote a faster recovery.”

Under Dr. Jain’s leadership, OrthoWIN’s “whole body” approach offers customized support to manage complex cases. The OrthoWIN platform – with its clear quality measures and a standardized approach – features a guided PM&R plan, seven-days-per-week therapy services as warranted, coordination with a patient’s surgical team on preferences, and wound care management. OrthoWIN also includes patient and caregiver education, as well as a virtual or in-person home evaluation prior to discharge.

Dr. Jain, who is board certified in PM&R and brain injury medicine, is affiliated with Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton and Capital Health Regional Medical Center in Trenton. She possesses more than 20 years of medical experience.
