It Takes a Village: Individualized Rehab


At Juniper Village Rehabilitation and Skilled Care at Brookline, our Connections, therapies, and restorative nursing departments are working together on an exciting new endeavor. With the goal of providing rehabilitative care to those residents whose insurances no longer cover rehab services--but who still could benefit from individualized treatment programs--a new spin on our walking club has recently been introduced.

Corey Sheehan, who heads the therapy department for our in-house RehabCare services, compiled a list of applicable residents' therapy discharge summaries, which is used in collaboration with Connections and restorative nursing to set the most accurate and productive recovery goals and provide an improved baseline from which to work.

In the near future, group exercise programs will be facilitated and tailored to individual resident needs, providing programs to improve ambulation, balance, range of motion and more!
