Inpatient rehabilitation, also known as short-term rehab, offers a path to accelerate recovery for individuals after experiencing an illness, injury, or surgery. These programs are designed with customized plans to address personal needs and goals, incorporating various therapy sessions.
A personalized rehabilitation plan may include physical therapy, designed to restore mobility after surgeries or strokes; occupational therapy, which helps regain daily living skills; and speech therapy, supporting those recovering from neurological conditions.
Short-term rehab strives to return patients home quickly by offering benefits such as "24/7 medical and personal care" to ensure recovery progresses smoothly, access to an on-site gym, assistance with daily activities, and tailored nutritious meals. The environment focuses on "safety and peace of mind," reducing the risk of falls or injury with designed safety measures.
Patients have access to "rest and recreation," with private rooms, social activities, and amenities supporting a positive recovery experience. There are opportunities for social connections, helping to mitigate isolation.
Rehabilitation facilities aim to prepare individuals to return safely home, with intensive support ranging from one to four weeks. Therapists collaborate with patients to equip them with the skills needed to manage daily tasks, offering tips on home modifications and outpatient therapy options when necessary.
For individuals not quite ready for independence post-hospitalization, "Transition to Home" programs serve as an alternative. These programs assess individual needs and design plans to guide a smooth return to living at home, providing home-cooked meals and personalized care.
The inpatient rehabilitation services are available at locations including Park Place Elmhurst and Victorian Village. Transition to Home services are provided at Park Place of St. John and Royal Atrium Inn. This step between hospital care and home life plays a crucial role in recovery.
