Rehabilitation

Because our goal at The Lou Lewis Skilled Nursing Program is for seniors to live as independently as possible, a broad complement of services is provided by a highly-trained staff of licensed therapists and assistants. We offer Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapy services.

Physical Therapy

Our licensed physical therapists work on improving coordination, balance, strength, endurance, and joint flexibility to achieve optimal levels of functional mobility. Our goal is to move seniors toward greater independent mobility. An integral part of the treatment is rehabilitation education for our clients and their families. Our physical therapists design individualized treatment programs for pain management, preventing disability, and restoring function.

Occupational Therapy

Our licensed Occupational Therapists enable the resident to adapt their physical and cognitive capabilities to the skills needed in activities of daily living. Occupational Therapists assess the areas needed for functional independence, customizing a treatment plan with emphasis on balance, strength, perception, and cognition.

Speech Therapy

Our licensed Speech-Language Pathologists work to restore the resident's ability to communicate. They address communication problems by helping patients improve skills in speaking, listening, thinking, problem solving, as well as organizing and sequencing thoughts. Speech Language Pathologists also assess swallowing difficulties and develop treatment and managed programs.
