Physical therapy and rehabilitation

Rehabilitation helps you regain strength and learn new ways of completing daily activities after serious injury or illness. Rehabilitation may include physical therapy, occupational therapy or speech-language pathology (speech therapy).

Rehabilitation services we provide

To ensure patients receive individualized care for their unique situation, we offer a variety of rehabilitation services.

Neurological rehabilitation

Our therapists offer specialized care when you have experienced a neurological event. We have also developed a comprehensive care program with our sister facility, HCA HealthONE Spalding Rehabilitation Hospital. This licensed acute rehabilitation center specializes in neurological rehabilitation. Our partnership with them allows you to transition smoothly from the acute-hospital setting to a rehabilitation facility.


Occupational therapy

Occupational therapy is most beneficial when you have a limited ability to perform everyday tasks and maintain or resume independent living. Our occupational therapy program aims to restore cognitive/perceptual deficits and optimize your ability to engage in everyday life. We focus on:

  • Independent dressing and bathing
  • Increased safety at home
  • Resuming leisurely activities
  • Returning to work
  • Upper extremity splinting for weakness and spasticity

Physical therapy

Physical therapy involves medically supervised exercise that helps you restore and maintain maximum movement and function. Physical therapy treatments may include:

  • Cardiovascular exercise
  • Endurance training
  • Gait and balance training
  • Manual therapy techniques
  • Modalities that reduce inflammation
  • Pain management techniques
  • Strength training
  • Wound care

Speech therapy

Speech therapy helps when you have experienced an injury or condition that limits your ability to communicate or swallow. When you're a part of our speech therapy program, we work to help you regain your speech at the highest level. To do this, we offer a variety of services and work closely with other therapists to ensure a comprehensive and effective treatment plan.

Our speech language pathologists provide evaluation, treatment and counseling when you are experiencing difficulties in the areas of:

  • Cognition
  • Communication
  • Memory
  • Receptive and expressive language
  • Speech
  • Swallowing
