Brooks Rehabilitation

What Brooks Rehabilitation does

Brooks Rehabilitation is a nonprofit healthcare organization founded in 1969 and headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation across the full continuum of care. The system operates two inpatient rehabilitation hospitals (University Campus and Bartram Campus), over 45 outpatient clinics, home health services spanning 23 Florida counties, two skilled nursing facilities (Bartram Crossing and University Crossing), assisted living and memory care (THE GREEN HOUSE Residences), and a nonprofit hospitality house (Helen's House). Patient care is delivered through a direct-to-consumer model accepting physician referrals, self-referrals, and institutional referrals from acute hospitals, with reimbursement drawn from private insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and self-pay. The organization serves a broad patient population with primary clinical focus on neurological conditions (stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury), orthopedic conditions (joint replacement, fractures, sports injuries), and secondary specialty programs in pediatrics, geriatrics, oncology rehabilitation, amputee care, speech-language pathology, pelvic health, and low vision.

The technical platform underlying Brooks' clinical offering combines specialized rehabilitation hardware and assessment infrastructure with proprietary programmatic approaches. The Brooks Motion Analysis Center uses 3D motion capture and Dartfish biomechanical video analysis for gait and movement assessment; sports therapy programs deploy AlterG anti-gravity treadmills, Biodex isokinetic systems, and blood flow restriction training; and the Brooks Aphasia Center delivers an Intensive Comprehensive Aphasia Program (ICAP). The Brooks Clinical Research Center and the Brooks-UF PHHP Research Collaboration drive clinical research output, while the Brooks Institute of Higher Learning operates six ABPTRFE-accredited physical therapist residency programs and an OT neurologic fellowship, having graduated nearly 150 residents over 12 years with approximately 70 currently practicing within Brooks.

The business model is service-based with revenue generated through fee-for-service billing across care settings, supplemented by philanthropic contributions via the Brooks Health Foundation. Brooks maintains active referral partnerships with healthcare systems including Baptist Health (operating an 18-bed inpatient rehabilitation unit at Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville scheduled for 2027) and Halifax Health (co-branded rehabilitation facilities in the Daytona Beach area). The organization has invested in geographic expansion with a new hospital under construction on the Mayo Clinic Arizona campus for 2026 completion, and announced $68 million in 2026 facility expansion projects creating 150 new jobs. Magnet With Distinction recognition from the American Nurses Credentialing Center in 2026 signals sustained clinical quality at institutional scale. Brooks is not publicly traded and does not disclose financial results publicly.
