Investing in Patient Care

 

Through our investment in patient care, our patients can now recover more quickly and safely with the use of our new Bioness Vector motion assistance equipment. This unique fall prevention harness system provides a safe environment for patients recovering from stroke, amputations, and orthopedic, brain and spinal cord injuries. Before leaving inpatient physical rehabilitation, our occupational therapist will develop a plan to ensure the home setting is safe and patients are ready to care for themselves, within the expectations of family and physicians.

Physical Therapy

 

The goal of inpatient physical therapy is to restore normal movement and function after a patient undergoes surgery or suffers from an illness or injury. Our dedicated team of licensed physical therapists uses hands-on treatment, exercise and gait training to help you regain independence. Physical therapy assists with:
 

  • Restoring normal function, strength and coordination

  • Improving mobility

  • Relieving pain

Occupational therapy

 

Occupational therapy helps prepare patients to successfully perform daily activities, such as bathing, dressing and home care management. Our highly-skilled occupational therapy team will customize a program to help restore function through:
 

  • Activities of daily living, such as dressing and bathing

  • Range-of-motion, strengthening and coordination exercises

  • Patient and family education and training in equipment needs

  • Vision and memory training
