About Kindred Hospital South Florida Hollywood

+
Kindred Hospital South Florida Hollywood, located on Van Buren Street in Hollywood, Florida, is a long-term acute care hospital (LTACH) providing skilled nursing and intensive medical services to patients with serious, complex, or medically fragile conditions. Unlike traditional skilled nursing facilities, Kindred Hospital South Florida Hollywood is designed to serve patients who require extended hospital-level care—including ventilator weaning, complex wound management, IV antibiotic therapy, cardiac monitoring, and aggressive rehabilitation—in a setting built for clinical intensity and recovery. Operated by Kindred Healthcare, one of the nation's most recognized names in post-acute and long-term acute care, the Hollywood facility benefits from a national network of clinical expertise, evidence-based care protocols, and robust quality programs. Kindred Healthcare's scale and institutional knowledge translate directly into better outcomes—physicians, therapists, and nursing staff are supported by best-in-class training and resources that smaller operators cannot match. Kindred's national reputation for managing medically complex patients makes this facility a preferred choice for hospital discharge planners throughout Broward County. Strategically located in Hollywood, Kindred Hospital South Florida is steps from the regional medical hub anchored by Memorial Regional Hospital and the Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital campus, one of Florida's premier Level I Trauma and specialty care centers. This proximity allows for seamless transitions of care between acute hospital stays and extended recovery, minimizing disruption for patients and families navigating complex medical journeys. Hollywood itself provides a supportive backdrop for families during what can be a difficult period. The city's robust dining scene along Hollywood Boulevard, the relaxing atmosphere of the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk, and nearby green spaces such as Topeekeegee Yugnee (TY) Park offer visitors opportunities to decompress and recharge. Convenient access to I-95 and the Florida Turnpike makes the facility reachable from communities throughout greater Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, ensuring that families throughout South Florida can remain actively involved in their loved one's care.
