Treatment Plans for Various Conditions

Our rehabilitation program encompasses the latest technology and modalities and innovative treatment plans that include individual and group therapy up to seven days a week. We also offer a prosthetic program for amputees, who can be fitted for prosthetics once they are cleared and then get follow-ups and adjustments.

We aim to help each resident achieve the highest level of functioning possible. Whether someone has suffered a fall, had an accident or stroke, or is recovering from surgery, our dedicated staff can help each person overcome specific challenges. Isabella’s short-stay rehabilitation program can address issues related to the following:

• Joint replacement
• Spinal cord injury
• Stroke
• Neurological conditions
• Orthopedic conditions
• Pulmonary conditions
• Brain injury
• Amputation
• Trauma
• Deconditioning due to illness and hospitalization
• Wound care management

After Therapy

Our Care Team will work with residents and their families to develop a discharge plan supporting a comfortable and safe home life. Our rehabilitation Nursing Team will ensure that each resident has the skills to manage daily life beyond the rehabilitation unit.

For example:

• Walking
• Assistance with daily living skills, such as meal preparation retraining and tub transfers
• Communication
• Use of adaptive equipment
• Being able to get in and out of an automobile

But our work doesn’t stop there. We also offer education to help each person improve his or her well-being and make healthy lifestyle choices after they return home.
