"More beds are needed in the San Antonio market to accommodate the volume of patients requesting Warm Springs for rehab care," according to Anthony Misitano, Principal and CEO of Post Acute Medical Corp, LLC. "Patients and families have trusted the Warm Springs Rehabilitation System for over 70 years and the Company looks forward to continuing the tradition to better meet the rehabilitation needs of patients in the Westover Hills and North Central Thousand Oaks region.

The Thousand Oaks project is a 34-bed rehab hospital on the former Compass campus located in the North Central Thousand Oaks area and in close proximity to Brooke Army Medical Center at 14743 Jones Maltsberger, San Antonio, Texas, 78247.
