All six Peplinski Group homes provide Long Term and Short Term Care.

Rehabilitation Services

Our specialty trained certified team of therapists focus to return residents to their previous physical, occupational, verbal and cognitive levels of activity. In many instances, residents benefit from a combination of therapy and nursing care allowing them to return home.

Physical Therapy

Physical therapy helps the residents to regain movement. Our caring team teach the residents how to increase their ability to walk and properly maneuver a wheelchair and assistive devices. They help the residents learn how to improve their balance, which enhances their safety when climbing stairs, getting out of a vehicle, bathing/showering, and transfering from bed to chair. Our physical therapy team will also determine if braces or splints are necessary to prevent stiffness or improve movement. They will help control/alleviate acute or chronic pain while encouraging residents and families to be actively involved in setting and achieving personal rehabilitative goals.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy teaches day-to-day skills. Residents re-learn the daily activities of life including: mobility, bathing, dressing, eating, meal preparation, homemaking and financial management. Our occupational therapists teach residents how to use the right techniques and equipment to complete these tasks. We also teach cognitive, musculoskeletal and mobility skills, including adaptive seating devices to prevent muscle deformities and maintain healthy skin. Residents receive training for memory loss, as well as problem-solving deficits. Family members/caregivers may also receive this training.

Speech Therapy

Speech therapy helps to overcome language disorders. Following a stroke or other injury our speech-language pathologists work one-on-one with residents to regain functional communication skills. Therapists teach residents how to regain speech, listening, writing, reading and gesturing ability. Other activities include swallowing therapy, and cognitive retraining.

Recreational/Social Therapy

We have a full time recreational therapist and activity professionals that engage residents in daily groups activities. Our activity staff also offers one-on-one interaction and community outings. Our full time social worker is available to assist residents with psychosocial needs. We work with residents and families to make the transition to the extended care setting. Upon discharge, we assist residents and families to facilitate home care therapy needs.
