The
Mount Carmel Inpatient Rehabilitation Center has been helping patients facing
recovery and rehabilitation from illness
and injury since 1987.
We are
CARF-accredited in two rehabilitation programs: a comprehensive integrated
rehabilitation program and a stroke specialty program. The Center has the
people, programs and facilities to make recoveries as successful as possible
for our patients.
Experienced Staff
The center is staffed by a multi-disciplinary team of top medical professionals
with the therapeutic expertise and specialized experience to ensure the patient's
rehabilitation stay is designed and implemented for maximum benefit. Our team
includes a board-certified physician in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation;
physical, occupational, and recreational therapists; rehabilitation nurses; a
neuropsychologist; social workers; and speech-language pathologists. Together
they use the center's state-of-the-art equipment and accredited programs to
provide patients with exceptional resources and an incomparable level of care.
Intensive Treatment
Our team works closely with patients to create personal treatment plans that
will help them function as independently as possible. We use therapies and
skills from a number of disciplines in both group and individual sessions to
give patients the strengths and skills they need to reenter their lives. In
addition to 24-hour-a-day medical support, our program provides a full range of
therapies and services, including:
- Physical Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Speech Therapy
- Recreational Therapy
- Rehabilitation Nursing
- Neuropsychology
- Social Work Services
- Nutrition Services
- Discharge Planning Assistance
- Support Groups
- Pastoral Care
- Audiology
- Orthotics/Prosthetics
- Respiratory Care
- Pharmacy Services
- Lab Services
- Radiology
- Driver Evaluation/Training Referrals
In addition to the intensive
therapy regimen that all patients receive, our stroke specialty program
patients benefit from a three-day stroke education series; individual training sessions with a full-time Clinical
Nurse Educator; a personal aftercare portfolio that includes health records,
stroke education, personalized care instructions and a community resource
guide; and access to our stroke support group.
Personal & Family
Involvement
Inpatient
rehabilitation is a participatory program at Mount Carmel.
Patients are personally involved in goal setting and program development, and
families are encouraged to take part in orientation, rehabilitation education,
therapy sessions and training, and enjoy unrestricted visitation.
Educational
Outings
Patients take part in off-site outings like fishing, golfing, shopping and
dining out that incorporate experiences and training which facilitate life
after recovery.
A Healing Environment
The Inpatient
Rehabilitation Center is a 24-bed facility aimed entirely
at improving patients' functional abilities and quality of life. In addition to
an integrated therapy area, the unit incorporates many of the comforts of home,
including an outdoor patio and common areas for meals, activities and
socialization.
A Record Of Success
The Mount Carmel Inpatient Rehabilitation
Center's Functional
Independence Measure — a measure of the patient's progress through a medical
rehabilitation program — exceeds regional and national standards.
Additionally, 77 percent of our patients
return home immediately after completing the program. Our dedication to provide
the highest standard of care also has earned us CARF-accreditation for our
Stroke Specialty Program and Comprehensive Integrated Rehabilitation Program.
