Rehabilitation
YOUR FIRST STEP TO RECOVERY
With access to the most advanced therapy equipment, our highly skilled team of medical professionals helps guide our patients to their highest level of independence, all within bright, modern rehab facilities.
Rehab Programs
Cardiac
Whether you have suffered from heart failure or coronary heart disease, or have undergone major heart surgery, a therapy plan is an important part of your recovery.
- Care plan tailored to your individual needs, interests, and limitations
- Regular update reports sent to your cardiologist and family
- Program designed to reduce the overall risk of heart attack and cardiovascular disease by building healthier habits
Pulmonary
Our pulmonary rehab is a restorative program that helps you manage the symptoms of chronic respiratory disease.
- Services designed to improve lung function
- Teach techniques to help you and your loved ones cope with progressive dyspnea (difficulty breathing)
Stroke
Cerebral vascular accidents – or strokes – can impact a wide variety of functions, such as cognition, communication, mobility, swallowing and activities of daily living.
- Full evaluation of stroke damage by interdisciplinary team
- Develop a plan for restoring muscle strength, flexibility, joint stability, and cognitive ability to get you back to your routine
- Regular reports sent to your neurologist and family
- Educate your loved ones in how they can assist throughout your treatment and recovery
The Process
Upon admission to the Home, you or your loved one will be evaluated by all therapy disciplines to determine how much and which types of therapy are needed. Your admitting physician will sign off on the plan before we begin treatment. The plan is continually evaluated throughout the healing process, with adjustments made, if needed. We hold periodic conferences with you and your family to discuss this plan and to review clinical records, approaches, progress, and any concerns. We will also send progress information to your doctor before you return for follow-up care.
