Rehabilitative Therapy Programs
Remaining as independent as possible is important to a resident’s physical, mental, and emotional health. Residents who are experiencing the effects of stroke, arthritis, orthopedic or neuromuscular disorders, and other physical difficulties can improve functioning or learn compensatory techniques with the help of our therapy specialists.
Following a thorough assessment and goal setting sessions with the resident and his or her primary caregiver, a team of therapists, nursing staff, social services, dietary and activities personnel create a comprehensive plan of care. The plan includes one or more of the following therapies:
Physical Therapy
Physical therapy focuses on improving muscular and neural responses to decrease discomfort and increase physical strength, range of motion, and the ability to walk.
Occupational Therapy
The goal of occupational therapy is to improve a resident’s ability to complete activities of daily living, such as dressing, bathing, and personal grooming.
Speech Therapy
Improving a resident’s speech, language, hearing, and ability to swallow is achieved through speech therapy and dietary modifications.
