MERCY RESTORATIVE CARE HOSPITAL INC., D/B/A CAROLINAS CONTINUECARE HOSPITAL AT PINEVILLE (CAROLINAS CCH AT PINEVILLE), IS A STAND-ALONE 40-BED LTACH HOUSED IN A MODERN FACILITY THAT WAS CUSTOM DESIGNED TO TREAT CRITICALLY ILL, MEDICALLY COMPLEX PATIENTS. CAROLINAS CCH AT PINEVILLE IS LOCATED IN SOUTHERN CHARLOTTE ON THE CAROLINAS HEALTHCARE SYSTEM PINEVILLE CAMPUS. Carolinas CCH at Pineville serves the needs of patients with medically complex conditions, especially those suffering from multisystem complications and needing extended recovery times - a hospital stay that is often 25 days or more. A patient is usually admitted after a short-term, acute-care hospital stay. After care in a Long Term Acute Care Hospital (LTACH), many patients are then able to transition from the LTACH to acute rehab, skilled nursing or go home. Hospice care is also a post-acute treatment option for patients with a terminal disease who have a life expectancy of six months or less. CAROLINAS CCH AT PINEVILLE develops a continuum of care between the acute and long term phases of a patient's illness. Our innovative and distinctive physician-driven approach allows us to bring new meaning to the "hospital-within-a-hospital" model. As a separate, fully licensed and staffed hospital, we are able to provide intensive and complex medical treatment to patients requiring longer lengths of stay for acute-care. We have specialty programs designed to meet the needs of long term, acutely ill patients with conditions including ventilator dependence, respiratory failure, chronic pulmonary problems, complex and severe wounds, and infections requiring long term antibiotic therapy. LTACH facilities also provide physical, occupational, and nutritional therapies, as well as pain management. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2025, CAROLINAS CCH AT PINEVILLE'S TOTAL PATIENTS ADMITTED WERE 360 AND THE TOTAL NUMBER OF PATIENT CARE DAYS PROVIDED WAS 10,429. THE AVERAGE DAILY CENSUS WAS 28.6 PATIENTS AND THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF STAY OF THE DISCHARGED PATIENTS WAS 29.5 DAYS.
