SOUTH OGDEN, Utah — Healing Innovations, a Nashville-based medical technology company specializing in rehabilitation robotics, is excited to announce its partnership with Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital, an Ernest Health facility serving patients throughout South Ogden and the surrounding region. Their clinical team has completed comprehensive training and the Rise&Walk® InClinic is now fully live at the facility, bringing the world’s first 3-in-1 robotic rehabilitation station to one of northern Utah’s most respected inpatient rehabilitation programs.

Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital is a specialized inpatient rehabilitation facility dedicated to helping patients recover from stroke, Parkinson’s, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and other complex neurological and orthopedic conditions. Ranked in the nation’s top 10% by the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (UDSMR), Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital holds both Parkinson’s Disease and Stroke Rehabilitation certifications and has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Best rehabilitation hospitals. The hospital’s multidisciplinary team of specialists works closely with patients and their families to restore function and support each patient’s return to the highest possible level of independence.

The Rise&Walk is the world’s first 3-in-1 rehabilitation station, combining robotic-assisted gait training, seated reciprocal stepping, and standing balance support in a single compact system. Purpose-built for inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) workflows, the Rise&Walk allows a single clinician to deliver high-intensity, high-repetition therapy sessions generating between 1,500 and 2,000 steps per session, supporting the neuroplasticity-driven recovery that is foundational to lasting functional improvement. With real-time rate of perceived exertion (RPE) tracking, therapists can individualize each session to a patient’s tolerance and progression, keeping therapy evidence-based and goal-oriented.

“Partnering with Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital is a proud milestone for our team. Their clinical staff approached training with exceptional dedication and a genuine commitment to their patients and that kind of intentional adoption is exactly what sets a partnership like this apart,” says Julie Hartman, DPT, Vice President of Clinical Strategy and Development for Healing Innovations. “We’re thrilled to see Rise&Walk active in northern Utah and look forward to the meaningful impact it will have for the patients and families throughout the region.”

For the patients Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital serves, many of whom are navigating complex, life-altering neurological conditions, the addition of Rise&Walk represents meaningful access to a more versatile, intensive approach to gait rehabilitation. The technology is designed to support patients living with stroke-related motor deficits, traumatic brain injury, incomplete or complete spinal cord injuries, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and a range of other neurological conditions. Rise&Walk’s three-mode design means a single system can meet patients where they are in their recovery journey and adapt as they progress, from early standing and weight-bearing to active gait training. As a facility that proudly serves veterans in the northern Utah community, Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital is now equipped to extend this level of advanced neurological rehabilitation to a broad and diverse patient population.

“At Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital, we are always looking for evidence-based, patient-centered innovations that can elevate the standard of care we provide. Bringing Rise&Walk into our rehabilitation program gives our clinical team a powerful, versatile tool to meet patients at every stage of their recovery, whether they are just beginning to stand or progressing toward independent walking,” says Stephanie Jolley, OTR/L, Director of Therapy at Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital. “We are excited about what this technology will mean for our patients and their families, and proud to offer the northern Utah community access to this level of advanced rehabilitation.”

The launch at Northern Utah Rehabilitation Hospital continues Healing Innovations’ growing footprint within the Ernest Health network, which now spans more than 30 facilities nationwide. Together, the two organizations share a commitment to placing advanced rehabilitation technology in the hands of exceptional clinical teams and to ensuring that patients across the country have access to the most effective tools available for their recovery.
