After recovering from a severe injury or illness few things are more important than returning to life outside of the hospital. If you or a loved one has survived a serious medical problem and are searching for the fastest way to return to normal life, then the acute rehabilitation services provided at Sierra Care are for you.
Being admitted to Sierra Care for acute rehabilitation means having access to skilled physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapists. These professionals are supervised by experienced physicians that monitor your progress and create individualized plans for your recovery. Every patient at Sierra Care is seen as an individual that has their own goals and needs. Our compassionate therapists, physicians, and nurses will listen to you and your loved one’s goals for recovery and work towards returning you to a full and healthy life.
Acute rehabilitation is therapies, exercises, and check-ups that are provided to patients after a sudden and severe injury. Most patients begin in an acute care hospital setting, which treats the injury and prevents any further complications or death. Following this, patients may be transferred to an acute rehabilitation facility that specializes in long-term care, physical, occupational, and/or speech therapies.
Acute rehabilitation differs from a nursing home or subacute rehabilitation facility in several ways.
