Individualized therapy
The rehabilitation program is led by a board-certified physiatrist who has advanced medical training and skills to diagnose and treat functional disabilities that may be caused by injuries, illness, or birth defects. Our healing attitude begins in our unique, personalized care setting, and follows through with our professional staff who take a holistic approach to total health — physical, psychological, social, and spiritual well-being. From Day One, we are focused on helping you achieve your biggest goal — going home.
We offer specialized rehabilitation nursing (many RNs are also certified rehabilitation nurses, CRRNs) and case management as well as comprehensive physical, occupational, speech/language and recreational therapy, supported by the latest rehabilitation technologies.
Our clinical affiliation with New England Rehabilitation Hospital outside of Boston ensures that your care meets the standards of a nationally renowned rehabilitation hospital. You'll benefit from having the best of both worlds: the expertise and resources of a major rehabilitation hospital and the family-centered, easily accessible environment of a community hospital. Our rehabilitative programs and therapies meet quality standards in collaboration with New England Rehabilitation Hospital, one of the largest rehabilitation hospitals in New England.

When it comes to accessing specialized services, you'll never have to worry.
