Pennybyrn Celebrates Grand Opening of the Lillian Congdon Transitional Rehab Center!
On Monday, June 27, Pennybyrn, along with many long-standing donors and supporters of the community, celebrated the momentous occasion by hosting an Open House and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony.
“The Lillian Congdon Transitional Rehab Center will provide short-term rehab services in a wonderful environment and in a special way that reflects Pennybyrn’s clinical excellence and unsurpassed hospitality as we build upon our seventy-five years of service”, shared Rich Newman, Pennybyrn President.
The ceremonies follow Pennybyrn’s announcement in June 2019 of developing a stand-alone transitional rehab center. The Lillian Congdon Transitional Rehab Center will allow individuals to receive short term rehabilitative services with the care and hospitality experience that Pennybyrn has delivered for nearly seventy-five years. “Pennybyrn is thankful for the donors that made this center possible, and we look forward to continuing our mission of Demonstrating God’s Love for the Lives we Touch in this new way”, shared Sister Lucy Hennessy, Pennybyrn Mission Leader.
The Lillian Congdon Transitional Rehab Center will offer innovative accommodations for inpatient rehabilitative care, a service Pennybyrn has provided for the past several years. The stunning 25,000 square foot facility includes 24 large private suites with in-suite bath, a state-of-the-art commercial kitchen managed by a dedicated Chef, and an 1800 square foot therapy gym, also with state-of-the-art equipment. In addition, there are large inviting common area spaces which include a living room, dining room, den, and sunroom as well as covered porches and a peaceful, inviting therapy garden. The expansion will allow Pennybyrn the opportunity to expand their therapy services to provide outpatient therapy.
The transitional rehabilitation program at Pennybyrn serves patients throughout North Carolina, as well as other states. “Pennybyrn‘s ability to provide excellence in care and service, as well as, state of the art therapeutic equipment and technology in a standalone luxurious sanctuary of healing is unparalleled. With the addition of the Lillian Congdon Transitional Rehab Center, our Pennybyrn community, High Point and surrounding communities will greatly benefit from something that simply cannot be matched anywhere in North Carolina,”, shared Vonda Hollingsworth, Pennybyrn Vice President.
