Rehabilitation
Personalized Rehabilitation Services
At Pickering Manor, personalized rehabilitation services are available to residents when clinically appropriate as part of our full continuum of care. Whether recovering from an illness, injury, or surgery, residents can receive therapy services in the comfort of the community they know and trust.
Working closely with physicians and our interdisciplinary care team, licensed therapists develop individualized treatment plans to help residents regain strength, improve mobility, increase independence, and enhance overall well-being.
Receiving rehabilitation in familiar surroundings allows residents to focus on recovery while remaining connected to the people, routines, and relationships that make Pickering Manor feel like home.
Occupational Therapy
Trained therapists help educate, improve safety, alleviate pain, and enhance functional performance. Occupational therapists can be instrumental in helping seniors regain or maintain their independence. Occupational therapy helps individuals adapt to life changes and quality of life in order to function at the highest possible level.
Physical Therapy
Helps restore and maintain maximum movement and functional ability. For seniors, therapy can help improve mobility, balance, range of motion, and physical strength. Physical therapy can help reduce pain, swelling, and joint stiffness. It can help regain lost muscle strength and endurance.
Respiratory Services
Respiratory services can be provided to those who have trouble breathing due to a chronic disease such as asthma, emphysema, chronic pulmonary disease (COPD), or for those recovering from an illness. It is intended to improve a person’s quality of life by helping increase their breathing efficiency.
Speech Therapy
Speech therapy helps with communication difficulties, chewing and swallowing disorders, and even strives to restore and maintain memory and cognition.
Restorative Nursing
The goal of restorative nursing care is to maximize a person’s level of function and minimize decline. Restorative nursing is ongoing and provided in addition to all other therapies to ensure maximum recovery. Restorative care aides reinforce the training individuals receive from physical, speech, and respiratory services. Restorative nursing services can help ensure that each resident will maintain his or her maximum functional capacity.
Wound Care
A critical illness or injury can result in slow-healing wounds that require close attention. Wounds can also occur due to surgery, injury, pressure, diabetes, poor circulation, or swollen legs. These wounds can last for months and even years. We provide help for difficult-to-heal wounds and monitor them closely with our specialized wound management team
