The new Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Network has been recognized as the Health Care "Deal of the Year" by Business Review West Michigan.

    GRAND RAPIDS, MI, October 29, 2011 /Health and Fitness PR News/ -- The new Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Network has been recognized as the Health Care "Deal of the Year" by Business Review West Michigan.

Mary Free Bed was among the organizations and business leaders honored last night during a special reception to recognize "game-changing" people and events in 2011. Twenty-two deals in six categories were nominated for consideration in the annual event.

"Mary Free Bed truly sets the gold standard in rehabilitative care. Our new network allows us to establish formal relationships with hospitals and health systems, long-term care facilities and referring physicians that will extend our brand throughout the state.

"We have already begun to add new jobs because of the network and look forward to continued growth and expansion."
