REHABILITATIVE THERAPIES

The goal of our Therapy Department is to alleviate physical challenge and promote independence in those we serve. The professional team of Physical, Occupational and Speech Therapists provide custom-designed Rehab programs for residents recuperating from procedures such as hip and knee surgery; and to those needing to regain strength and endurance from diagnoses such as pneumonia, heart attack and stroke.” Focus is upon assisting the individual to develop skills and abilities needed for optimum independence. Our expertise addresses these needs from the younger adult to the Senior citizen.

Commitment to our goal has led to Therapy services available six days per week, rather than a traditional five days per week program. The services of the Therapy Department are also available to those residing on our Personal Care area, and of course, are based upon assessed need and a physician order.

Physical Therapy Staff address quality of life by promoting functional independence. Each therapy program addresses the resident’s unique circumstances to help regain balance, good body mechanics, strength and mobility.

Occupational Therapy Staff strive to increase functional ability with daily activities such as dressing, bathing and eating accomplished through customized treatment plans.

Speech Language Pathologists work with our residents to increase abilities with swallowing, communication and cognitive abilities.

It Takes Teamwork. Family and friends are invited to actively participate in the resident’s rehabilitation plan, as appropriate. Questions and suggestions are welcomed.
