This accreditation values the program's specialty focus on: functional independence, social skills, quality of life, and support services for the patient and family affected by stroke. In order to earn the stroke specialty designation, the rehabilitation program goes through an intensive accreditation survey. Health promotion and screenings, as well as preventative care and health care delivery, are also integral elements of the rehabilitation department. ###### Contact Information **Rehabilitation Center at Kent Hospital** 455 Toll Gate Rd. Warwick, RI  02888 P: [(401) 736-4658](tel:+(401)736-4658) F: (401) 736-4521 ## Who Choose Us ** #### A Customized Approach The Rehabilitation Center at Kent provides a customized approach to each patient, providing interdisciplinary care on the road to stroke recovery. Many of Kent's rehab patients are stroke patients; therefore, the therapists have the experience and knowledge to work with all levels of stroke patients, utilizing various innovative techniques and skills. Specialized equipment includes the Omnicycle, VitalStim for swallowing disorders, and iPad for communication techniques. ** #### Support Group Kent Acute Rehabilitation Unit is an integral part of the continuum of care for stroke patients. With most critical recovery taking place within the first three months following an acute stroke, the intensive therapy during this time maximizes function and successful outcomes. Following inpatient rehabilitation, many of our stroke patients return for a monthly stroke support group, which becomes integral to ongoing recovery. We seek to establish an ongoing relationship for continued healing and rehabilitation. ** #### Exceptional Outcomes Our stroke-specific outcomes far exceed the nation and region. We discharge 76 percent of our stroke patients to home, compared to 64 percent in the nation, and only 53 percent in the region returning to home. Kent Rehab's philosophy is to achieve patients' goals, which is to get back home and enjoy life! ##### Contact Us [Send Us A Message](https://www-kentri-org.sandbox.hs-sites.com/contact-us?hsLang=en) [1 (401) 227-3669](tel:+14012273669) 455 Toll Gate Road Warwick, Rhode Island 02886 - [**](https://www.facebook.com/KentHospital) - [**](https://twitter.com/KentHospital) - [**](https://www.linkedin.com/company/kent-hospital/) ##### Other Care New England Locations [Care New England ](https://www.carenewengland.org/?hsLang=en) [Butler Hospital](https://www.butler.org/?hsLang=en) [Women and Infants Hospital](https://www.womenandinfants.org/?hsLang=en) [The Providence Center](https://providencecenter.org/) [VNA of Care New England](https://www.vnacarenewengland.org/?hsLang=en) ##### Patients and Visitors [Find A Provider](https://www.kentri.org/provider-finder?hsLang=en) [Integra Community Care](https://www.integracare.org/?hsLang=en) ##### About Us [Who We Are](https://www-kentri-org.sandbox.hs-sites.com/about-us?hsLang=en) [Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI)](https://www.carenewengland.org/dei?hsLang=en) [Legal Notices](https://www.carenewengland.org/legal-notices?hsLang=en) [Auxiliary Aids & Services](https://www.carenewengland.org/auxiliary-aids-and-services?hsLang=en) [Price Transparency](https://www.carenewengland.org/price-transparency?hsLang=en) [Research](https://www.carenewengland.org/research?hsLang=en) ##### Get Involved [Ways to Give](https://www-kentri-org.sandbox.hs-sites.com/ways-to-give/?hsLang=en) [Careers](https://www.kentri.org/careers?hsLang=en) [Volunteer](https://www.carenewengland.org/volunteer?hsLang=en) ##### News [In The News](https://www.kentri.org/news?hsLang=en) [Media Relations](https://www-kentri-org.sandbox.hs-sites.com/media-relations?hsLang=en) Copyright © 2026 Care New England Health System × You are about to leave our website and enter an external site.
