Homeward Bound
Homeward Bound is a short-term rehabilitation program, which focuses on addressing the specific needs of each patient. Treatment programs are individualized in order to allow our patients to reach their maximum potential. Because we believe that family support and education are vital aspects in providing excellence in care and assisting the patient to maximize functional ability and independence, family involvement in the rehabilitation process is encouraged.
Physical Therapy
Our Physical Therapy program focuses on the identification, prevention, and rehabilitation of individuals with physical impairment and pain. Following evaluation, the physical therapist develops an individualized treatment program to address lower extremity and trunk strength, range of motion, balance, coordination, functional movement, ambulation, endurance, and pain reduction.
Occupational Therapy
The Occupational Therapy program addresses activities of daily living skills, including eating, dressing, hygiene, and home management tasks. It also provides treatment interventions for upper extremity function, cognition, perception, and community reintegration.
Speech/Language Therapists
Our Speech/Language Therapists provide a continuum of services, including assessment, education, and treatment of patients with communication, cognitive, and swallowing problems. Treatment programs are directed towards improving communication skills in the areas of comprehension and expression. Patients admitted to the facility that are receiving nutrition partially or exclusively via gastrostomy tube are evaluated for their potential to return to solid foods as appropriate.
