When your mobility, function and cognitive abilities have been impaired by trauma, disease, surgery or a chronic condition, rehabilitation is often the path to returning you to daily function, activities you enjoy, and a sense of independence.

Our extensive experience in nursing care partnered with the professional expertise of Arbor Rehabilitation enables us to better respond to unique challenges and create a custom plan of recovery for each individual patient.

 

Occupational Therapy

For individuals affected by physical illness and injury, or a neuromuscular disorder such as Multiple Sclerosis or Parkinson’s Disease, our facility provides comprehensive therapy programs designed to restore maximum functional performance and independence.  These therapeutic exercises include:

  • Strength and range-of-motion exercises
  • Balance, gait and mobility training
  • Cardiac rehabilitation
  • Reeducation of daily living skills, including personal care, dressing and meal preparation

 

Physical Therapy

For patients requiring orthopedic and post-surgical rehabilitation, Northfield Village combines therapeutic, clinical and technical resources to create a patient-centric plan of treatment. This approach to treatment has proven to be highly effective in improving balance and fall prevention, and the recovery process of:

  • Joint / ACL replacement
  • Bone fractures and joint injuries
  • Amputation
  • Neck and back injuries
  • Osteoporosis, arthritis and chronic joint pain
  • Work and sports-related injuries
  • Postural dysfunction and abnormalities
  • Traumatic brain injury

 

Speech Therapy

Many conditions can affect a person’s ability to speak and impair their ability to eat or drink.  This disruption of basic human function plays a significant role in one’s overall quality of life.  Through advanced physical and neurological techniques, patients learn various recovery and adaptation skills that assist in:

  • Swallowing and the treatment of Dysphagia
  • Voice projection
  • Language and comprehension recovery
  • Verbal and non-verbal communications
