MossRehab/Einstein Medical Center-Elkins Park receives 1 million dollar grant

MossRehab/Einstein Medical Center-Elkins Park is receiving a 1 million dollar grant from the Commonwealth to help fund the expansion of Moss’ Brain Injury Rehabilitation Center.

The funding comes from the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP) which is a Commonwealth grant program administered by the Office of the Budget for the acquisition and construction of regional economic, cultural, civic, recreational, and historical improvement projects.

The Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program (RACP) funding from the Commonwealth will be used to grow robotics and technology rehabilitation spaces at Moss and to renovate the on-site pharmacy in accordance with safety standards and regulatory guidelines.

State Senator Christine Tartaglione (D-2nd District), on hand to present the ceremonial check, noted that the presentation fell in the middle of National Rehabilitation Awareness Week as recognized annually by the National Rehabilitation Awareness Foundation.

“This week, I encourage us all to focus our attention on the remarkable and transformative patient outcomes that are achieved through medical rehabilitation,” Senator Tartaglione said. “Rehabilitation increases access and opportunity for the 50 million Americans living with disabilities, and it helps them live up to their fullest potential.”
