Rehabilitative Services
There was a time when a serious injury or illness, especially late in life, could take you or a loved one away from home forever. Now, with aggressive rehabilitative therapy, you can go home again and enjoy doing the things that you or your loved one loves to do.
We take great pride in our rehabilitative services. While we serve residents during long-term illnesses or terminal conditions, many residents stay with us during short-term incapacities and return to improved or independent living through our professional rehabilitative services. Our goal is to assist each resident to obtain the highest level of function and capacity for life.
Physical Therapy
- Physical therapy focuses on problems with loss of movement, strength, motion, balance and skin breakdown to accelerate recovery, prevent impairments and minimize wounds and contractures.
Occupational Therapy
- Occupational therapy assists residents in relearning activities of daily living such as grooming, bathing, dressing and feeding to restore their highest level of independence.
Speech Therapy
- Speech therapy helps to increase the resident’s ability to express their desires as well as the restoration of swallowing skills following a stroke or due to neurological muscular diseases.
Since our therapy places an emphasis on educating both the patient and family regarding proper exercise, diet and positioning techniques, progress should continue at home following the short-term stay in the facility.
Our Staff
Our employees are committed to excellence because we know how much you care. Our entire staff routinely receives in-service educational training to better meet the needs of our residents. Our skilled nursing staff receives continuing educational training beyond what is required by law so we may keep abreast of ever-changing health care delivery.
