Baptist Rehabilitative Services provides a comprehensive spectrum of patient care beginning with therapy in the acute stages of a hospital stay because of injury, illness or surgery.

The acute rehab unit is a 13-bed unit designed specifically for rehab patients. The unit features a fully functional kitchen and laundry unit used for basic living skills retraining using real-world scenarios, as well as a custom gymnasium.

What Impairments/Problems Can Benefit From Rehabilitation?

Common impairments addressed in therapy include:
  • Cognitive (thinking skills) deficits
  • Loss of mobility or difficulty walking
  • Loss of coordination and balance
  • Difficulty with speech and language
  • Swallowing difficulties
  • Loss of bowel and/or bladder control
  • Difficulty with everyday activities, e.g. eating, grooming, dressing, bathing and homemaking skills




Our Services

Advanced therapy equipment and friendly staff provide an atmosphere that helps patients focus on their daily therapy goals.

Our patients are challenged and encouraged to believe in themselves so they can regain their confidence and a high level of independence.

Patients will be required to participate in a minimum of three hours of therapy a day. Therapy will be provided a minimum of five days per week.

The rehabilitation program focuses on the following three principles:
  • Begin therapy as soon as possible
  • Use a coordinated team of rehabilitation professionals
  • Involve the family

Patients and their families are the center of our program. Together with the rehab team, they are actively involved in establishing goals, participating in therapy and planning for discharge to a homelike setting.
