Outpatient physical rehabilitation
An outpatient rehabilitation program allows patients to stay at home during their recovery and receive therapy on their schedule. It is usually less intensive than inpatient rehabilitation.

Physical therapy
Physical therapy assists in building strength to improve balance, endurance and function and decrease pain. Our physical therapists help patients with a wide range of conditions, including neurological and neuromuscular conditions. We also help patients undergoing surgery with preoperative and postoperative care.
Speech therapy
A certified speech-language pathologist provides speech therapy designed to help patients with deficits in speech, language, cognition and/or swallowing. In conjunction with our radiology department, we offer videofluoroscopic swallow studies. During this exam, the patient intakes a small amount of barium, and X-rays are taken of their upper digestive system. This allows us to see how the throat and esophagus react when a patient swallows food, which helps us better understand swallowing difficulties.
Referrals and admission
We work with our patients and their referring providers to provide individualized care.
Participating in our program
Our hospital accepts most insurances. Individuals requiring any rehabilitation treatment must be referred by a physician and have a signed prescription from that physician.
