REHABILITATION
SERVICES
The goal of the Collingswood Rehabilitation Team is to train people

functional level or return home.
Collingswood offers rehabilitation services for the evaluation and treatment
of multiple conditions such as: acute or chronic disorders such as arthritis,
cardiovascular accident (stroke), TIA, joint replacement, hip and pelvic
fractures, movement disorders, musculoskeletal problems, neuromuscular
disease, and reconditioning. The Collingswood team of licensed professionals
will develop individualized plans for each patient to maximize recovery
and achieve the highest level of function.
Physical therapy services include therapeutic exercise and strengthening,
balance retraining, gait training, functional mobility training, prescription
of assistive devices, application of modalities, and wheelchair seating
and positioning.
Occupational therapy services are available to improve daily living
skills such as eating, dressing, and bathing, to provide training in
the use of adaptive devices to improve functional/perceptual cognitive
skills, and to address upper extremity/hand problems.
Speech/language pathology services address communication and cognitive
deficits as well as eating and swallowing disorders.
Our therapists utilize a variety of tools to promote recovering, including
weights, cycles, recumbent trainers, ultrasound, and electrical stimulation.
Our fully equipped “apartment” is used to train people to
be able to return home.
