Good Shepherd Specialty Hospital has been helping patients recover from complex medical conditions and injuries since 2000. The first long-term acute-care hospital (LTACH) in the region, we help patients who are too medically fragile to transfer to a skilled nursing facility, acute rehabilitation hospital or their home after a hospital stay. In addition to general rehabilitation, our team is renowned for their expertise in ventilator weaning and respiratory care.
Good Shepherd Specialty Hospital is focused solely on maximizing recovery. Located in the South Tower of Lehigh Valley Hospital – Muhlenberg, every patient has a private room. As a hospital within a hospital, acute care services, such as imaging, are just steps away.
We accommodate bariatric patients as well as those with complex wounds and ventilators.
Upon arrival to Good Shepherd Specialty Hospital, you will be greeted by one of our registered nurses. A care manager will meet with you to review your admission information.
Your family is an important part of your recovery. Please have a family member or friend accompany you to our hospital so we can include them in your care from the start.
Good Shepherd patients can exercise their faith while rehabilitating mind and body. Our Pastoral Care department is available to support both patients and families. Contact us at 610.776.3526.
As your care partner, we recognize the importance of family presence, and we respectfully request that visits occur from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Daily quiet time is held 2-4 p.m., so our patients can have a peaceful rest period. Children under 18 must be supervised by a responsible adult.
To minimize the nurse’s time away from the bedside, please designate one family member to be the spokesperson for the patient and share information with other family members. Between 6:30-8:30 a.m. and 6:30-8:30 p.m., the health-care teams are exchanging patient information; we ask you to refrain from calling during these hours if possible.
Free parking is available in front of Good Shepherd Specialty Hospital’s entrance off Westgate Drive (rear of Lehigh Valley Hospital – Muhlenberg).
