Settings for therapy

You may receive physical therapy in different settings depending on your condition:

  • Inpatient therapy, which occurs while you are staying in the hospital after a serious injury or illness.
  • Outpatient therapy, in which you come to our location for care and go home after each appointment.

Inpatient therapy may be followed up with outpatient therapy after you leave the hospital to build on your progress and achieve long-term results. No matter the setting, patients receive the same high-quality speech therapy services, tailored to their individual goals.
