Short-Term Rehabilitation at Southwood

At Southwood, rehabilitation is all about moving forward following an accident, surgery, stroke or cardiac event. Our highly trained in-house physical, speech and occupational therapists develop an individualized daily plan for you, setting achievable goals to return you to as full a lifestyle as possible after a health event that requires rehabilitation. Therapies are available and provided as needed based on each individual’s plan of care.

• Physical therapy centers on strengthening your body to improve mobility, balance, coordination and joint movement, as well as the use of any prosthetics, while minimizing pain and discomfort.
• Occupational therapy focuses on helping you manage day-to-day tasks, such as bathing, personal grooming, dressing, eating and resuming your hobbies and interests.
• Speech therapy helps improve communication skills, cognitive function and swallowing abilities.

Enhanced therapy services at Southwood include diathermy and ultrasound to assist with decreasing pain, electrical stimulation to support improved joint movement and muscle strength and vital stimulation to promote better swallowing. When you are engaged in these enhanced services, you have a more positive experience during your regular therapy sessions.
