The rehabilitation program is led by a physician who specializes in rehabilitation and physical medicine. The physician has an interdisciplinary group of highly trained and motivated specialists to round out the team – physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech/language pathologists, cognitive therapists, rehabilitation nurses, social workers, therapeutic recreational specialists, and nutritionists.

All rehabilitation programs are individually tailored to ensure success. We strive for healthy outcomes. That means using every possible form of effective therapy to accelerate and maximize every resident’s rehabilitation potential.

Rehabilitation programs range from intensive one-on-one therapy sessions to group sessions. This includes a variety of support groups that allow residents the opportunity to learn more about their condition, share experiences with others, discuss concerns, and build lasting friendships.

Residents are always busy if they choose to be. A representative from the activities department greets each resident at the time of admission to discuss personal interests and hobbies. While at the facility, patients can be involved in their favorite pastimes, and meet others with similar interests.

Arts and crafts, physical fitness programs, and discussion groups are all coordinated through the activities department. There are also holiday parties, ice cream socials, and cookouts. Outings away from the facility are also scheduled.

In addition to our activities room, there is also a music room, an activities room, a library, and an entertainment room.

We accept most Medicare, Medicaid, workers compensation, and insurance plans, including a wide range of major HMO’s and PPO’s, including, but not limited to:

Families are invited to actively participate in goal-setting, conferences, teaching programs and counseling sessions. They will work with the same members of the care team throughout a resident’s stay.

Learning to adjust to and care for a family member with a handicap can be an enormous task for a family. Our social workers can help address these complex issues. In addition, a Family Council group is organized especially for family members. At these meetings, families can share their feelings and thoughts with others who are in similar situations.
