-
Senior physical therapy

Senior wound care following surgery
Senior physical therapists work with people who have experienced an injury or disease that affects their range of motion or causes pain during movement. Therapy is often referred by a physician. Our specialists use a combination of exercise, stretches, manual therapy techniques, and equipment to restore function and relieve pain.
Senior occupational therapists work with people whose ability to perform daily tasks has been compromised – often following injury or a health crisis such as a stroke. The goal is to utilize tools and develop techniques to regain autonomy and live safely – often, this includes preventing falls.
Occupational therapy in our health center includes the following:
-
Customized treatment plans
-
Recommended changes to your home environment to fit your abilities
-
Coaching new methods to accomplish common tasks
-
Training with adaptive equipment
-
Progress assessments and reports
Occupational therapy is sometimes combined with physical therapy to improve or recover strength.
Senior speech therapists can help older adults improve communication and cognitive skills, as well as teach safe swallowing. These treatments are often necessary following a stroke or traumatic injury or for those living with dementia. Included in speech therapy are diet modifications and special feeding techniques, muscle retraining, and the use of communication devices.
What happens after your senior rehab services?
Senior rehabilitation speeds the recovery process and leads to better outcomes. Some rehabilitation patients at The Grand Royale move home and live independently. On the other hand, many short-term rehabilitation patients fall in love with the lively and attentive culture full-time residents enjoy. It’s not uncommon for rehab patients to choose to move into an Independent Living or Assisted Living residence at The Grand Royale, embracing a wonderful lifestyle secured by a continuum of on-site care.
