Index of Services | Life sometimes brings unexpected challenges. The Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit at Newman Regional Health is dedicated to helping individuals recover and reach their greatest potential following a disabling injury or illness. Patients that may benefit from Inpatient Rehabilitation include those affected by conditions such as stroke, neurological disorders, orthopedic procedures, hip fracture, amputations, and major trauma.
We provide intensive therapy programs which assist patients in developing new skills, relearning previous skills, and fostering a healthy return to enjoyable life activities. Patients find our program is different from a routine hospital stay. We believe that caring for patients means helping them learn to do as much for themselves as possible.
Patients participate in:
- One-on-one therapy
- Group treatment
- Community re-entry and adaptive leisure activities
- Patient and family education
- Other goal-directed activities
Our rehabilitation specialists strive to help the patient improve in mobility, strength, and independence while providing hope and encouragement to the patient and family.
Goals may include:
- Maximize independence in activities of daily living including bathing, dressing, meal preparation, etc.
- Achieve safe mobility with or without adaptive equipment
- Improve balance and coordination
- Maximize communication skills
- Improve swallowing ability
- Enhance knowledge of available resources at discharge
The Rehabilitation Unit accepts referrals from physicians, healthcare professionals, family members, and patients themselves. Following a referral, a pre-admission assessment is arranged and completed at no charge.
