Rehabilitation Services
South Windsor offers a diverse team of therapists and doctors who offer our residents some of the most progressive physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy programs in the area. Our state-of-the-art Rehabilitation Department uses advanced techniques and equipment which improves patient outcomes resulting in earlier discharges to home. All of the rehabilitation programs we offer are carefully designed to assist patients in regaining their optimal functionality and independence. Our occupational therapists focus on balance and upper body strengthening - necessary skills for daily living. Our physical therapists focus on lower body strengthening, gait training, transfer abilities, and assistive device usage. Speech therapists focus on managing swallowing deficits, developing problem solving abilities, and improving speech and language skills. Together, their goal is to provide each resident with the opportunity to overcome barriers and re-master lost functional skills due to limitations caused by illness or age.
