About Multicare Good Samaritan Hospital

MultiCare Good Samaritan Hospital in Puyallup, Washington is the anchor acute care facility for the MultiCare Health System in East Pierce County — a full-service, 320-bed regional hospital serving Puyallup and the surrounding communities with 24-hour emergency and inpatient care. Among its clinical specialties, the hospital has integrated photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy into its rehabilitation and supportive care offerings, reflecting a broader trend among leading academic and community hospitals to incorporate evidence-based light therapy into mainstream clinical practice. Photobiomodulation at MultiCare Good Samaritan is deployed within the context of the hospital's robust rehabilitation infrastructure. The Good Samaritan Regional Rehabilitation Center is one of Washington State's leading inpatient rehabilitation programs, annually treating more than 700 patients with complex neuro-trauma conditions including stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury. PBM therapy — using low-level laser or LED light to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and accelerate tissue healing — complements this rehabilitation mission by addressing the soft tissue and neurological components of recovery that conventional physical and occupational therapy alone may not fully address. The hospital's rehabilitation team is multidisciplinary, combining physical, occupational, speech, and aquatic therapy with specialty programs for lymphedema, vestibular dysfunction, and wheelchair seating and mobility. Photobiomodulation fits naturally within this integrative framework, offering clinicians a non-invasive, drug-free tool for pain management and wound healing across a wide range of patient presentations. As Puyallup's only hospital and one of the region's highest-volume rehabilitation centers, MultiCare Good Samaritan Hospital provides access to PBM therapy within a clinically supervised setting — an important distinction for patients whose complexity requires coordinated care rather than standalone wellness sessions.
