A Complete Continuum of Care for Medical-Surgical Services and Physical Rehabilitation

A Place to Discover What is Possible.

Casa Colina is a non-profit, freestanding, community-governed organization. With incredible support from our community, we have been privileged to bring the benefits of rehabilitation to tens of thousands of people since our first patient in 1938. In the decades that followed, we continued to expand our care to include a state-of-the-art hospital that offers acute rehabilitation and medical-surgical care, as well as a broad range of outpatient services that includes specialized physician clinics, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, neuropsychology, diagnostic imaging, children's services and even an outdoor recreation program for people with disabilities. In the pages that follow, you'll discover more about our leadership, our nearly 80-year legacy and the numerous ways we help people achieve optimum health, gain independence and return to the highest level of function possible.

A Center of Rehabilitation Excellence in Southern California

Above all else, we want to provide every individual the maximum opportunity for rehabilitation after an unexpected injury or illness, or debilitating disease. This is at the very core of everything we do here. Casa Colina is a unique Center of Excellence that provides a culture of collaboration where medical leaders and experienced physical rehabilitation experts work together to help individuals steadily progress from one level of achievement to the next. It's a complete continuum of care designed for patients at any stage of rehabilitation - from acute rehabilitation hospital care to post-acute residential and outpatient services that are conveniently accessible throughout a state-of-the-art 20-acre Pomona campus and satellite locations.

Advocacy, Aid and Awareness

Where do patients turn for help when they need financial support to continue their care at Casa Colina? Where does a parent turn for additional support for his or her child’s disability? The Casa Colina Foundation acts as a safety net for people who may greatly benefit from Casa Colina’s programs and services, but lack the ability to pay for them.

Medical Research at Casa Colina

Exploring New Ways to Enhance Care

The discoveries we make at Casa Colina are destined to not only help our patients, but others throughout the world. Each year, the Casa Colina Research Institute conducts clinical research studies to improve the clinical care of people with disabilities, and discover new findings about disabilities.
