Our approach features a cohesive, interdisciplinary rehabilitation team not found in most post-acute settings.
Our team includes Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech-Language Pathologists, and their assistants working together with nursing, dietary, activities, and social services to assist patients in reaching and maintaining their maximum potential.
Our licensed Physical Therapists focus on improving the coordination, balance, strength, endurance, and joint flexibility to achieve optimal levels of functional mobility. The goal is to move the resident toward greater independent mobility, either unassisted or with the aid of an assistive device. Rehabilitation education of the patients and families is an integral part of all treatment. For alleviating pain, preventing disability, and restoring function following injury or illness, our Physical Therapists design individualized treatment programs that may include:
- Joint Mobilization
- Orthopedic Rehabilitation
- Gait and Transfer Training
- Therapeutic Exercises
- Wound Prevention
- Range-of-Motion Exercises
The Occupational Therapy program focuses on improving a person's ability to manage everyday living skills. The Occupational Therapist evaluates each patient and identifies functional goals.
Programs are individually developed to maximize the resident's optimal level of independence, restoring functional abilities to compensate for dysfunction and minimize deficits. Occupational Therapy services may include:
- Activities of Daily Living (ADL)
- ADL Transfer/Mobility Retraining
- Cognitive Perceptual Retraining
