Short-Term Rehabilitation

Our rehabilitation program philosophy is centered on treating the whole person using an interdisciplinary approach that combines physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy in concert with nursing care. We work with each resident to develop a customized rehabilitation plan that meets their individual needs and goals. Our state-of-the-art therapy equipment and caring staff help our residents achieve their maximum potential and return to their prior level of function as quickly and safely as possible.

Our interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals works closely with each resident and their family to provide comfort, support, and symptom management. We also offer respite care for family members who need a break from caring for their loved ones. This service allows family members to take a much-needed rest while ensuring that their loved ones receive the best possible care.
