Have you lost functional independence as a result of injury or illness? Do you need to regain strength and balance or mobility and walking skills? Has your physician ordered physical therapy? We can help you.
Our physical therapists work closely with physicians and nursing staff to set up treatment programs. They handle the necessary paperwork, perform treatments and instruct the nursing staff and physical therapist aides.
Our rehabilitation goal is to make it easier for you to carry out everyday activities that most people take for granted. We try to get you where you can take care of yourself again and return home. Even if you remain in our nursing home, with physical therapy you will still be able to do more for yourself.
So, what can you expect? Upon entering a physical therapy room, you will see lots of equipment and machines. Our physical therapists will design an individualized program. And you will be taken through that program, a little at a time depending on your strength and stamina. As you progress, these programs will increase in intensity to help you achieve your therapy goals.
We work directly with patients and their family members to understand the necessity for a prescribed program. Many times exercises are given to do without therapists. It helps to have a family member who can lend a supporting hand or cheer on progress. We make every effort for the rehabilitation experience to be one of both joy and accomplishment—a time when hope is restored.
