Be Advised Podcast: Leading Future-Forward Rehabilitation Programs

The ‘Be Advised’ Podcast is back with a new episode exploring the topic of medical leadership and what that looks like now and into the future of rehabilitation programs. This episode’s guest is Dr. Michael Jakubowski, the Chief Medical Officer of Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital.

Over the last several years, the inpatient rehabilitation industry has seen a rise in the complexity of persons served. Patients now often have multiple co-morbidities, a higher case mix index and require a well-coordinated team of specialty providers.

Through Dr. Jakubowski’s leadership, Mary Free Bed has been able to ensure patients with complex needs receive critically-important medical coordination, to help facilitate sustainable functional outcomes, as well as decrease complications of care.

On this episode of Be Advised, Dr. Jakubowski discusses the role medical leadership plays in a progressive, forward-focused rehabilitation program. He is joined by host, Joyal Pavey, vice president of the Mary Free Bed Advisory Group. Co-advisors, and co-hosts are J’nise Ramsey and Sherry Mullins who serve as regional directors of care transitions and Dr. Robert Krug.
