(Red Oak, IA) – Officials with Montgomery County Memorial Hospital + Clinics (MCMH + Clinics) say they are pleased to announce that their rehabilitation services will transition from being operated by Rehab Visions of Omaha to being operated locally by MCMH. The Board of Trustees unanimously approved the change at its October 29 meeting.

Officials say the transition strengthens MCMH+Clincis’ commitment to keeping high-quality care local, aligned, and responsive to the needs of their patients and community. Importantly, patients will continue receiving exceptional care from the same trusted therapists they know, as all current Rehab Visions staff will become MCMH employees on January 1, 2026. MCMH will continue offering Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech-Language Pathology to both inpatients and outpatients.

Rehab Visions will transition to MCMH Rehab Services, with all services continuing in the same location inside MCMH. This seamless shift preserves continuity for patients while allowing MCMH to grow and enhance therapy services in the years ahead. MCMH CEO Ron Kloewer says “We are excited to welcome our talented rehabilitation team as MCMH employees,” said. This transition isn’t about fixing something broken—it’s about building on an already strong foundation to better serve our community.

“They have been part of MCMH for decades, but being an MCMH employee is something special and I am thrilled with their eagerness to make this transition. The staff will keep their seniority and be eligible for all the MCMH benefits. To all the MCMH Rehab Services staff… WELCOME!”

Kim Roberts, Rehab Services Manager and Physical Therapist adds, “It feels like we have been a part of the MCMH family for a long time, and we are excited to now make that connection official. We remain committed to delivering high-quality, respectful care to our patients, and we look forward to growing and strengthening the department as part of
MCMH.”

The transition will take place over the next two months, with continued communication and opportunities for staff and community input.
