Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation at Cedargate Healthcare

Many individuals come to us after hospitalizations to continue to recover from disease or injury. In addition, they must recover from the deconditioning that accompanies inactivity. Often times, these individuals need intense rehabilitative therapy in a skilled nursing setting. We offer a full variety of individualized treatments in physical, occupational, and speech therapies. We offer a fully equipped therapy gym where residents can focus on their treatment plans and get back on their feet as soon as possible. Our nurses, CNAs and therapists closely follow plans of care provided by referring physicians. Our goal is to get you to your optimum level of function in your optimum time.

When the time comes to return home, our staff will work with you and your family to plan a successful transition. A therapist may choose to assess the home environment and make recommendations on safety issues or helpful adaptations that may be made to their home environment.
