Our goal is to help patients become as independent as possible so they can return to daily life. To ensure each patient is receiving the best care possible, our team of experts, also called an interdisciplinary team, leads patients through their individualized rehabilitation program.
We strive to create a comfortable, homelike setting for our patients and their loved ones and are always open to feedback on what we can do to enhance a patient's stay. We have common areas equipped with TVs and computers. We also have a private dining room so that families can host birthday parties, celebrations, and other important special events while loved ones are hospitalized. Patients and families have access Monday through Friday to our onsite HealthPark, which boasts a fish pond, walking track miniature golf course, and multiple venues to enjoy and visit with family, friends, and guests. Additionally, we have gym space, inpatient care units and the very best equipment available to ensure your best possible outcome. During the week and as needed on weekends, patients undergo at least three hours of therapy that may include occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech therapy. Patients also have access to neuropsychological services, recreational therapy and pet-assisted therapy. Arrangement for other needs can be made as needed.
