Day Hospital

The Day Hospital at Gangdong Samsung Rehabilitation Hospital is a same‑day admission and discharge program in which patients receive intensive rehabilitation during the day and spend the evening at home with their families — without the burden of a hospital stay.

It is well suited to patients who need specialized rehabilitation but for whom admission is difficult or burdensome.

Why day hospital

Day Hospital advantages

01

Less burden than admission

Patients receive intensive rehabilitation during the day without being admitted, reducing the burden on patients and caregivers.

02

Higher intensity than outpatient care

Provides more intensive treatment for patients in the recovery phase for whom outpatient therapy alone may not be enough.

03

Rehabilitation that links home and hospital

Because patients return home in the evening, the functions recovered in hospital quickly carry over into real everyday movements.
