Asheville Specialty Hospital
Serving Patients with Complex Needs
Asheville Specialty Hospital fills an important new role among Western North Carolina's healthcare providers. Long-term acute care hospitals are a growing trend, born from the realization that neither the traditional hospital nor the nursing home environment can address the needs of some patients with challenging medical needs. Patients who may benefit from Asheville Specialty Hospital include:
- Patients recovering from stroke, Guillain-Barré syndrome, endocarditis or long-term intravenous antibiotic therapy
- Patients with respiratory failure
- Newly diagnosed patients with kidney disorders or disease requiring dialysis
- Those with wound infections needing intensive wound care
- Patients who need nutritional support or have any kind of nutritional impairment
- Chemotherapy or radiation therapy patients
