Rehab Therapy
Our experienced rehabilitation team is committed to the quality of care for our residents.
Patients are empowered through individualized programs to reach goals of increased independence.
Patient families are also encouraged to participate in therapy sessions.
We offer outpatient services too! One doesn't need to be a resident with us to do therapy. We
are here for you.
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy focuses on identification, prevention, and rehabilitation of individuals with physical impairment and pain, as well as future injury prevention. Following evaluation, the physical therapist develops an individualized treatment program.
Occupational Therapy
Our occupational therapists use task-directed activities to treat patients whose functional abilities and independence with activities of daily living have been impaired by illness, injury, or normal aging.
Occupational therapy assists our patients in adapting to their social and physical environments by mastering tasks essential for daily living. Our occupational therapists may work with patients who have debilitating arthritic conditions or those with difficulty bathing, dressing, and other activities of daily living. They assist our patients with impaired vision and/or hearing to function well in their environment.
Speech Therapy
Our speech therapists provide a myriad of services including assessment, education, and treatment for language, voice, articulation, and fluency disorders. Our treatment programs are directed towards improving communication skills and safe swallowing.
We assist in rehabilitating patients who struggle with comprehension, memory, processing, and expression abilities. We also instruct the patient or the caregiver in techniques ranging from head positioning to promoting safe swallowing at a slower rate to clearer speech. We also teach patients how to compensate if they cannot be rehabilitated to their prior level of performance.
Areas of treatment may include
Functional independence – eating bathing, toileting, homemaking, cooking
Maintenance of wellness – dressing, grooming
Prevention of further disability – home assessments and modifications, adaptive equipment
Increasing safety awareness
