Physical Therapy
Physical therapy helps patients restore strength, improve balance and increase endurance. This is done through training and exercises, rather than medication or surgery. Any patient who suffers from chronic pain, weakness or stiffness may be a candidate for physical therapy, regardless of age.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy helps patients re-learn the skills needed to perform basic daily functions. These include going to the bathroom, grooming, bathing, dressing, cooking and working. Our therapists focus on treatments to improve activities of daily living with the goal of helping patients regain their independence.
Speech Therapy
Speech therapy is for people who have speech, swallowing, voice and language disorders. Our goal is to help patients establish or reestablish optimal communication. Speech and language therapists also evaluate and treat cognitive abilities, including attention, memory, problem-solving and executive functions.
Swing Bed Program
Swing bed is a Medicare program that provides extended care to those needing additional time to rebuild their strength following an acute illness or surgery.
