Rehab Pro provides exceptional care and service in three primary therapy disciplines: physical, occupational, and speech. Our 600+ therapists are highly qualified and exhibit the highest standards of professionalism. Our priority at Rehab Pro is producing excellent clinical outcomes, which is why all of our therapists utilize a "patient first" approach. We know our patients not only desire, but need positive results; therefore, we strive to achieve this by hiring only the best in the field.
While no one ever wants to need any type of therapy, there are times in our lives when an accident or medical condition necessitates therapy in one or all of the three areas mentioned above. When that happens, Rehab Pro is the one to turn to for help. With the caring attention to detail, comprehensive knowledge, and commendable expertise that our therapists deliver on a daily basis, it's no wonder that Rehab Pro is growing at an aggressive yet controlled pace. And, with an exceptional management team in place, care is always taken to ensure that patients come first.
All three therapy disciplines begin with an initial evaluation as a first step, followed by the development of a comprehensive plan of care. All therapists complete daily, weekly, and monthly reports to accurately monitor and assess a patient's progress.
While the majority of Rehab Pro's therapy services take place in skilled nursing facilities, some therapists deliver treatment in hospital or outpatient settings. Much of the therapy which takes place in skilled nursing facilities addresses orthopedic, neurological and geriatric specialties.
Some of the conditions which usually necessitate one, two or even all three forms of therapy include:
Rehab Pro's physical therapists strive to maximize patient independence. When you or a loved one has become incapacitated to any degree, it's critical to receive physical therapy from an individual with the compassion and expertise to help get things back on track. Rehab Pro prides itself on its therapists' abilities to assist patients in recovering maximum mobility and productivity. Typically, physical therapy revolves around treatment of the larger muscles of the body. Through a customized treatment program, a Rehab Pro therapist will increase a patient's ability to function in daily life activities, such as getting in and out of a vehicle, going up and down stairs, or walking with or without the assistance of equipment. When necessary, our therapists also will recommend necessary adaptive equipment to assist with balance and endurance, facilitate muscle re-education, and provide family and caregiver training. The initial evaluation completed by a physical therapist can include: assessment of posture, gait, range of motion, strength, joint mobility, muscle strength, cardiovascular function, reflexes and functional skills.
Rehab Pro's occupational therapists promote health through a customized program of purposeful activity that requires the patient's physical and mental involvement. When you or a family member lose the ability to perform basic daily activities such as eating a meal or dressing yourself, a well-qualified Rehab Pro occupational therapist is able to help you recover the coordination and fine motor skills necessary to accomplish these kinds of tasks once again. Because the primary goal of therapy is to allow the patient to return home or to return to his or her original setting, much consideration is given by Rehab Pro therapists to a patient's environment and his or her needs as they pertain to that environment. Will the patient have to prepare meals? Will the patient need any type of equipment in the bathroom to provide stability while bathing? Rehab Pro therapists pride themselves on not only their therapy skills, but on their listening skills as well. Listening to patients, finding out what their goals are these are the types of skills that help Rehab Pro therapists stand out as some of the best in the rehabilitation industry.
Speech therapists for Rehab Pro provide an invaluable service to patients who require help learning to communicate or swallow again. From the elderly patient who has suffered a severe stroke to the younger patient who has to re-learn cognitive communication skills due to a brain injury, the Rehab Pro speech therapist works from a tremendous skill set to assist in both of those situations, as well as countless others. Rehab Pro's speech therapists concentrate on activities that provide oral communication skills and build the self-confidence associated with normal speech functions. Being the fast-growing and competitive company that it is, Rehab Pro ensures that all therapists, including speech therapists, have the latest educational tools and equipment at their disposal. For instance, one of the most recent breakthroughs in speech pathology, a therapeutic new program called "Vital Stim" is being offered on a continuing education basis to all Rehab Pro speech therapists. This intense, comprehensive therapy treatment is expected to help shorten the patient's recovery time and increase success rates for patients with swallowing disorders.
