Our Mission is to strive to provide professional, caring, rehabilitative services to our patients, while establishing positive client relationships and maintaining the highest standards of customer service. Our overall commitment to excellence is reflected in the high standards we have set for ourselves.
Physical Therapy
Movement is the main focus for physical therapy. This includes bed mobility, transferring from the bed to a chair or toilet, walking, using stairs and/or wheelchair mobility. Physical therapists may instruct patients on the use of a walker or cane, maneuvering a wheelchair with one hand or on safe transfer techniques. They also work with patients to decrease pain and improve strength, endurance, balance and range of motion.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapists help patients become more independent by teaching them new ways to perform life tasks such as making breakfast, dressing or simply brushing their hair. Occupational therapists also teach patients how to protect their muscles and joints and increase their strength and endurance. When necessary, they provide training in the use of adaptive equipment, such as reachers and long-handled shoehorns.
Speech-Language Pathology
Speech-language pathologists evaluate and treat patients for hearing, language, communication and swallowing disorders. The focus of speech therapy is improving speech-language expression, comprehension, oral motor skills for accurate speech production and strategies for safe eating.
