What to Expect
Our hospital has defined rehabilitation with positive results in mind. Your course of treatment will be tailored to meet your needs and abilities. You will be under the care of our team of qualified experts. The team works together closely to plan for your recovery.
Although the plan of care is different for each patient, the daily schedule follows the same basic routine.
Following is an example of a typical day at our hospital:
5 – 7 a.m.
There’s a lot of work to do, so the day starts early.
Your nurse will visit you and provide you with any needed treatments.
Nursing and/or therapy staff will help you to use the rest room, and get clean and dressed for the day.
7 a.m.
Breakfast is planned daily by your nutritionist and physician to account for your current medical needs. Depending on your health and ability, you may eat in your room, or visit the dining room.
If you need help getting to the dining room or eating your meal, it will be provided.
8a.m – noon
During the remainder of your morning you will be involved in some type of therapy, depending on your needs.
Your nurses and therapists will remind you and help you to follow your personalized therapy schedule.
In addition to your individual sessions with a physical therapist, occupational therapist or speech therapist, you may be assigned to a group session to work on exercises and other activities.
Group sessions provide an opportunity to be around others in similar situations and can be motivating and supportive.
Group sessions help you gradually practice performing your therapy in more “real world” settings and more on your own.
Noon: Lunch
Lunched is planned daily by your nutritionist and physician to account for your current medical needs. Depending on your health and ability, you may eat in your room, or visit the dining room.
You may go through the lunch line, enjoy the salad bar and the company of the other patients and our hospital staff.
There are always experienced caregivers on hand to help you in the dining room.
1 – 5 p.m.
Your afternoon will also be spent in therapy sessions.
Rest is provided between sessions, when needed.
Nurses will check up on you through the day, provide you with needed treatments, and help you practice the activities you learn in therapy.
5 p.m.
Dinner is planned daily by your nutritionist and physician to account for your current medical needs. Depending on your health and ability, you may eat in your room, or visit the dining room.
