A well-staffed department of Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists and a Speech Pathologist provide skilled rehabilitative care to residents, many of whom may have the potential to recover and return to their homes. Post-operative cases needing intensive rehabilitation are routinely admitted for short stays until they progress enough to be discharged home or to an alternate level of care like adult home or assisted living. Even if discharge home is not a likely outcome, these highly skilled therapists assist residents to improve ambulation, range of motion, speech and activities of daily living to enable them to lead a happier and healthier lifestyle in the facility.
