Philosophy of Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation means reshaping lives and restoring lost abilities after an illness or injury. Once physical limitations have been identified, skilled treatment procedures prescribed by the physician are implemented, and an individualized treatment program is developed. We treat the whole person- physically, emotionally and socially and with the Eden Alternative philosophy guiding treatment. In rehabilitation, the goal is to return people to their optimum level of function and open the door to a better quality of life.

Our unique service model includes:

• Physical, occupational and speech therapies available five days per week
• Interdisciplinary treatment approach by a team of highly qualified rehabilitation professionals
• Family involvement in treatment and care planning processes
  
• On-site rehabilitation program director to coordinate and manage the efforts of the interdisciplinary rehab team
  
• Pre-admission screenings to asses each patient’s appropriateness for the program
