Patients admitted to one of our hospitals for an injury, illness or condition can receive acute inpatient therapy to start their recovery process. Hospital-based physicians will consult with our therapy team based on a patient’s needs. Our therapists will then reach out to the patient and his family to begin the rehabilitation process. We provide a multidisciplinary approach to:
- Promote independence
- Maximize function
- Initiate the rehab continuum of care
We provide services to neonates, infants, children, adolescents, teens and their families. Our goal is to help ease the transition home or to one of our other programs after discharge.
