Kindred Healthcare runs hospitals and related care facilities focused on intensive medical and rehabilitative services. It operates 61 long-term acute care hospitals and 18 community-based short-term acute care hospital campuses, serving patients with serious or complex health needs. The organization emphasizes a compassionate patient experience as part of its approach to care. It is based in Louisville, Kentucky, and maintains a large workforce across its facilities. Since December 2021, Kindred’s facilities have been integrated into ScionHealth as part of a corporate realignment that involved LifePoint Health, with Cornerstone Healthcare Group joining ScionHealth in 2023. This arrangement places Kindred’s LTACH network and the LifePoint campuses under the ScionHealth umbrella, aligning governance and operational oversight. A recent development, announced in April 2026, involves Kindred Fort Worth developing policy principles for long-term acute care reform to inform congressional discussions and improve access for patients who need LTAC services.
