Improving the lives of people with severe illness or injury takes more than skill and compassion - it takes innovation. A national leader in long term acute care, LifeCare was built on the belief that early and aggressive intervention, coupled with a personalized treatment plan that encompasses body, mind and soul, can maximize a patient`s potential for recovery. Our multi-disciplinary treatment teams are directed by highly-trained, committed physicians and include healthcare professionals involved in all aspects of a patient`s care: nurses, respiratory therapists, physical medicine specialists, radiologists, pharmacists, dietitians and case managers. Our philosophy has impacted the lives of thousands of LifeCare patients, resulting in improved outcomes, shorter hospital stays and more cost-effective treatment. Based in Plano, Texas, the LifeCare Family of Hospitals includes both freestanding and "hospital-in-hospital" acute care hospitals designed to treat medically complex patients who require acute care hospital services for an extended period of time.

The Ripple Therapeutics Epidel® technology is founded on a discovery that drugs can be engineered into controlled release materials without the use of polymers or excipients. The proprietary prodrugs are new chemical entities (NCEs) that have unique properties that allow them to be processed into standalone drug delivery implants (e.g. intravitreal implants, micro/nanoparticles, etc.) or as coatings on medical devices. Ripple Therapeutics implants and coatings are made up entirely from the prodrug without a polymeric carrier to control the implant or drug release properties. The implants and coatings undergo surface erosion to give zero order drug release profiles and are highly engineerable (e.g. different forms, shapes, and sizes) to tailor drug dose and duration for the specific indication of interest. The flexibility in molecular design results in drug doses that are within the therapeutic window, delivering the right amount of drug for the right amount of time. This has the potential to improve patient safety and clinical outcomes.
