Hanger Clinic opened a state-of-the-art Integrated Care Center (ICC) in Schaumburg, Illinois, with a grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony on March 18.
Patients at the 19,000-square-foot facility will have the opportunity to trial different technologies to determine the best fit based on their individual needs and lifestyle, and to test those devices out in a real-world setting, including a large gym, rock climbing wall, golf simulator, running track, full kitchen, and demo apartment for practicing everyday tasks. The onsite fabrication lab provides direct patient access to technicians.
The ICC also offers advanced technologies that provide the ability to track progress, including performance-based measures and patient-reported measures to improve care. The collaborative environment facilitates integrative care with external healthcare partners and creates opportunities for peer support programs and community events.
“Empowering human potential is at the core of every decision we make,” said Pete Stoy, Hanger’s CEO. “I’m so proud of the team that made the Integrated Care Center come to life, as it is the culmination of a multiyear journey. We will have the privilege to serve patients from across the country and around the world who will encounter an expert team and innovative atmosphere. This space was designed with input from patients and clinicians and is part of our commitment to providing an unmatched O&P ecosystem for the best possible patient outcomes.”
