Physical therapy

Physical therapy is an important part of treatment for patients with pain and/or movement dysfunction caused by disability or disease. Through proper evaluation and treatment, physical therapy can minimize pain and disability and maximize a patient's ability to function. Physical therapists also help promote a healthy lifestyle through injury prevention education and personal fitness programs.

Our therapists are experienced in treating a variety of medical and physical conditions. They develop individual treatment plans to help each patient regain an improved quality of life. Treatment plans and services vary, and can include:

• Care for neck and back pain
• Ergonomic assessments
• Function capacity evaluations
• Patient and family education
• Post-operative rehab
• Vestibular rehab

Occupational therapy

Our occupational therapy program helps patients who need specialized assistance in achieving functional independence. We care for patients through exercise, activities and cognitive training. We offer:

• Evaluation and treatment of deficits in strength, endurance and range of motion
• Evaluation and treatment of patients with neurological disorders
• Treatment of traumatic or repetitive injuries of the hand/upper extremities

Outpatient speech therapy and rehabilitation

We offer outpatient services for speech-language therapy on our main hospital campus. Our speech therapists (also referred to as speech-language pathologists) provide accurate assessments for children and adults with neurological impairments. We also offer individualized, patient-focused treatments that promote understanding, speaking, swallowing and thinking.

Speech and language conditions commonly treated include:

• Aspiration pneumonia
• Brain injuries
• Cognitive deficits, such as memory, attention, or problem solving issues
• Coughing, choking or gagging when eating or drinking
• Dysphagia (swallowing disorder)
• Motor disorders
• Painful swallowing or a sensation of food stuck in the throat
• Progressive neurological conditions

Outpatient speech therapy appointments

We offer convenient appointments to fit therapy around your schedule. Before we are able to work with you, a physician referral and order for services must be provided. We accept referrals from physicians, families and other healthcare professionals.

We are open Monday through Friday from 8:00am to 5:00pm.
