Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation is the centerpiece of treatment for those who have been hospitalized because of an illness or injury and are not able to go directly home.

We partner with Infinity Rehab, a nationally recognized rehabilitation provider to offer physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology.

While we offer state-of-the-art equipment that’s both therapeutic and fun like “Wii,” we strongly believe it’s our therapists that make the difference.  Every day they coach, encourage, motivate and support patients as they heal, gain strength and work toward their goals of returning home or back into the community.  In our most recent survey, 96% of our rehab patients and families report they would recommend Mira Vista rehab to others!

Physical Therapy

Our talented team of physical therapists focus on helping patients reach their highest level of independent mobility and learn how to prevent injury.  Treatments are individualized and may include a variety of techniques from heat and cold, hydrotherapy, and electrical stimulation to massage joint mobilization and exercise.  Training is also available for use of crutches, canes, walkers, wheelchairs and prostheses.

Occupational Therapy

Getting ready to go home may include time with our occupational therapy specialists who work closely with patients to reach their highest level of independence with activities of daily living.  Patients are actively involved in a variety of therapeutic tasks like dressing, grooming, bathing and eating.  Adaptive equipment may be used to enhance or modify performance in personal care, home management, meal preparation and work or leisure activities.

Speech and Language Pathology

Our experienced speech and language therapists help patients reach an improved quality of life by assessing language, swallowing and/or cognitive disorders.  Services may include exercises to increase language fluency and the functions of thinking and memory and swallowing.

Recreational Therapy

Helping people with illnesses, disabilities and other conditions to use their leisure in ways that enhance their overall wellness and quality of life is the goal of our recreational therapy services within the Mira Vista Activity Department.  Our staff works closely with nursing and other therapy areas to provide an individualized recreational program for our patients.
