An Update Regarding Seasonal Illnesses

To help prevent the spread of seasonal respiratory illnesses, we strongly encourage all visitors to wear a mask while in ambulatory clinics or inpatient units. Surgical masks are available at hospital and clinic entrances. Patients with respiratory illnesses should also wear masks. Thank you for helping protect our patients, staff, and community.

Physical Therapy

Treatments and Services

When a patient is referred to physical therapy, their first visit will be an evaluation. This means the therapist will ask about the patient’s physical history, examine the area of the body that needs therapy, and make a recommendation for treatment. Patients will be asked to come in once a week or more frequently, depending on their care plan. 

Each patient will experience a treatment program designed especially for them. By working with the patient and their loved ones physical and/or occupational therapists can care for patients to provide the following interventions:

  • Walking and balance retraining
  • Wheelchair seating and medical equipment assessment
  • Mobilization techniques
  • Manual therapy
  • Return to sport retraining
  • Physical modalities
  • Range of motion, strengthening, flexibility, and stabilization exercises
  • Body weight supported treadmill training
  • Neuromuscular re-education
  • Functional electrical stimulation
  • Splinting
  • Functional mobility and transfer retraining
  • Activities of daily living (ADLs) retraining
  • Contracture management
  • Vestibular rehabilitation
