Physical therapy
Rehabilitation is a combination of medical care, therapy and education. Physical therapy aims to restore maximum physical function and enable you to return to your daily life as quickly as possible. We focus on helping you regain movement and prevent further illness or injury. Getting adequate rest is also essential to healing. In our inpatient program, you have a private room and bathroom to give you the comfort and privacy necessary for recuperation.

Speech and language therapy
Speech and language therapy is often recommended after a traumatic or debilitating injury or illness that affects a person's ability to speak, such as a stroke. Our speech therapists develop individualized programs to help improve your confidence and independence, as well as your:
- Cognitive abilities

- Speech quality
Swallowing therapy
Swallowing therapy helps improve the overall function of swallowing, which is essential for airway protection, muscle strength, eating and drinking. Difficulty swallowing, also known as dysphagia, can commonly occur if you have experienced certain conditions, such as stroke, cancer or brain injury.
