Penn Medicine Rittenhouse

Penn Medicine Rittenhouse is a rehabilitation and long-term acute-care facility in the Southwest Center City neighborhood of Philadelphia founded in 2007.

[1] The current facility is owned by the University of Pennsylvania Health System (UPHS)[2] and operated by Good Shepherd Penn Partners.

[3] The space was formerly occupied by the Graduate Hospital, which opened in 1916, though medical care originally began on the site in 1889 under the name Philadelphia Polyclinic.

The hospital was a member of Pittsburgh's Allegheny Health System from 1996 until 1998, when the company went bankrupt, and was part of Tenet Healthcare from 1998 to 2007, when it finally sold back to the University of Pennsylvania Health System[4] and in 2006 it sought to sell this and two other Philadelphia hospitals.

The main campus, part of the Penn Medicine Institute for Rehabilitation Medicine, is a 58-bed inpatient rehabilitation facility operated by Good Shepherd Penn Partners.
