"Providing leadership on major issues shaping the organization, delivery, quality, and financing of post-acute
rehabilitation services across all post-acute settings in the U.S. and abroad."


Our vision is to forge a national and international network of investigators that will be viewed as the "go-to" source for innovative ideas and accurate information on post-acute care. CPS aims to (1) provide reliable data on post-acute industry trends (2) serve as a catalyst for new ideas that can advance policy and research discourse for post-acute services (3) create a network of willing and committed investigators from around the world who want to improve the organization, delivery, quality, and financing of post-acute rehabilitation services through research, publication, and education, and (4) foster and implement practice-based evidence studies in post-acute rehabilitation in order to discover and validate best practices and opportunities for innovation.
