Your Team
The Numbers
Unlike a skilled nursing facility (SNF), critical illness recovery hospitals (also known as Long Term Acute Care Hospitals) provide the same level of care you receive in a traditional hospital. With a better nurse-to-patient ratio, more nursing hours per day, private rooms, and access to specialists, you receive a higher quality of care than in a SNF. At AMG Specialty Hospital – Albuquerque, you’ll always receive a higher quality of care, so you can recover more fully.
