KMH offers Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). MRI is a sophisticated diagnostic tool that uses a magnetic field to scan inside the body, and is especially effective in imaging soft tissues. It produces detailed 3-dimensional images allowing a physician to more easily and accurately diagnose illness or disease. Among its many advantages, an MRI is ideal for:

  • Diagnosing multiple sclerosis
  • Diagnosing tumors of the pituitary gland and brain
  • Diagnosing infections in the brain, spine or joints
  • Visualizing shoulder injuries, or torn ligaments in the wrist, knee and ankle
  • Evaluating masses in soft body tissues, bone tumors, cysts, and bulging or herniated discs in the spine

Rehabilitation Services
KMH offers inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services including physical, speech and occupational therapy.

Skilled Nursing Center
KMH has 10 designated skilled nursing facility beds. These beds allow patients who need skilled nursing care to stay in the community and within the secure environment of KMH.

Surgical Services
The Surgical Services Department offers both inpatient and outpatient surgery, including laparoscopic techniques in hospital surgical suites. Comprehensive endoscopy procedures are also available.
