Short-Term Rehabilitation
The Rehab Team
Our team of licensed physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists work with our nurses, social workers, dietitians, and activity personnel to meet each person’s medical needs and goals. Implementing an individualized plan of care approved by the physician, our therapists use best practices and evidence-based procedures to achieve the best outcome possible. The therapy gyms offer an inviting environment to help our patients regain the skills necessary to improve their function.

Not everyone is able to discharge directly from the hospital to home. Ross Memorial Center provides short-term skilled nursing and rehabilitation services to help patients recover in order to transition from the hospital to their home or alternate living situation. Therapists are involved to help patients every step of the way and provide support for a smooth transition.
Our services include:
- Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is the practice of manual manipulation of the body to help regain mobility, strength, and function. It also helps ease the pain from surgery, illness, or a chronic condition.
- Occupational Therapy
The goal of occupational therapy is to assist people in regaining their ability to accomplish routine activities of daily living (cooking, cleaning, dressing, bathing, grooming, etc.). By using various techniques, occupational therapy helps increase people’s independence and well-being.
- Speech Therapy
Speech therapy specializes in the evaluation and treatment of communication and swallowing disorders. It helps people improve their communication skills and eat and swallow more safely, and it provides assistance and resources to family members to help communication in the home.
