Physical, Occupational and Speech Therapy
Our attached clinic maintains a high-quality
therapy unit operated by locally owned Rehab Plus. This
provides an on-site rehabilitation service that is offered to
residents of Pelican Valley Health Center in the form of evaluations
and treatment of neurological and/or physical disorders by a
registered physical, occupational and speech therapist.
Residents are evaluated with problems related to
range of motion, upper and lower extremity coordination, balance,
endurance/tolerance, activities of daily living and perception.
Residents receive rehabilitation, communication, and cognition
services according to their individual needs and as ordered by their
physician.
The short-term goal is to improve the residents
functional ability and to encourage the resident to be independent
in activities of daily living. The long-term goal is to have
the residents reach their highest possible functioning level.
