Orthopedic and Joint Replacement Rehabilitation
We specialize in short-term and post-acute care, and we love working with patients needing orthopedic and joint replacement rehabilitation following an injury or surgery.
In addition to receiving skilled nursing services and therapy services, patients will enjoy privacy and safety during their stay with us in our sub-acute/short-term rehabilitation unit dedicated to short-term guests.
Regardless of the individual needs of each of our short-term patients, our team always has a primary focus to maximize functioning and independence on the focused path to return home.
Orthopedic and Joint Replacement Rehabilitation Services
Our primary goal for each of our short-term rehabilitation patients is to help them regain strength and return to their prior level of function. Our therapy and nursing departments work together to help each patient meet their treatment goals so we can get them back into their own home as quickly as possible.
Once nursing and therapy goals have been met, our care coordination team of social workers work with each patient to ensure a smooth discharge process.
