Item 2.05       Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities

On August 14, 2008, RehabCare Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a definitive agreement to sell substantially all of the operating assets of RehabCare Rehabilitation Hospital – Permian Basin (“Midland”), a 38-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital located in Midland, Texas.  The sale of assets is expected to be consummated on August 29, 2008 and be effective the following calendar day.

In connection with the sale of assets, the Company expects to incur lease exit costs and termination benefit costs in amounts discussed below.

The Company is party to an operating lease for the Midland hospital building with a term ending June 30, 2013.  While the Company is aggressively pursuing sublease opportunities or a buy out of the lease, management currently expects to incur net lease exit costs in the range of $2.0 million to $4.0 million, all of which are expected to result in net cash outflows in future periods.

The Company expects the employees of Midland to transfer employment to the purchaser, transfer to other operating locations of the Company or be terminated.  Those employees who are terminated will be eligible for one time termination benefits which the Company estimates will approximate $0.1 million in aggregate.  The Company expects to pay these termination benefits prior to the end of its fiscal third quarter.

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Certain statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K are forward-looking.  Such forward-looking statements involve estimates, assumptions, judgments and uncertainties.  There are known and unknown factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those addressed in the forward-looking information.  Such known factors are detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in other reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
