Rapid Recovery Center Becomes Bridgemoor Transitional Care

From Bridgemoor Transitional Care

WEBSTER, TX — Rapid Recovery Center of Webster is changing its name to Bridgemoor Transitional Care. The name change was announced on Monday and will impact all short-term rehabilitation facilities located in Webster, Round Rock, Fort Worth, and San Antonio.

The company is led by veteran health care executive Mark Fritz, president of Bridgemoor Transitional Care and former president of RRC Texas.

“We’re excited to begin this new chapter while continuing to provide exceptional rehabilitation and care to several communities across Texas,” Fritz said. “We run a model of care that is unique in U.S. health care. All parties win: the patient, the provider and the payer.”

Bridgemoor Transitional Care’s clinical care capabilities include: state-of-the-art physical, occupational and speech rehabilitation available seven days a week; an in-house pharmacy dispensing system; dialysis coordination; electronic medical records; and other clinical support services.

The centers accommodate patients in private suites with private bathrooms and also feature on-site hair salons and in-room and fine dining options prepared by an executive chef.

Similar to RRC, Bridgemoor will provide personalized, cost-effective transitional care following a hospital visit that enables patients to regain their highest level of independence as quickly as possible.

Bridgemoor’s model of care serves as a bridge between hospital and home, aiming to reduce the likelihood of a return to the hospital.

This model preserves precious Medicare/insurance benefits through shorter lengths of stay, reducing the total cost of care as the patient recovers under the direction of a physician-led team.

All Bridgemoor Transitional Care locations include full-time nurse practitioners to manage patient care, as well as an experienced medical director to oversee medical care and treatment with assistance from full-time RN supervisors available 24/7.

“Under the management of Bridgemoor Transitional Care, we’ll continue to work closely with local hospital systems, medical professionals and insurance providers to ensure that our patients have the immediate care they need to recover as soon as possible and return home to their daily lives,” Fritz said.
