Forest View Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing

Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy focuses on helping patients regain their upper-body independence so that they can live at home and get around their neighborhood, despite physical limitations. Our goal is to provide our patients with the skills necessary to continue living their lives and perform the every-day meaningful activities that are integral to home life, including dressing, bathing, showering, cooking, eating, etc. We accomplish this in an average of just 3-4 weeks! Our patients are so pleased with the caring, personalized attention they receive here that should they, a family member, or a friend need another short term rehab stay, they very often choose to return to us.

Each patient is evaluated upon admission, and is provided with the best course of therapy that meets his or her needs. Patients receive individualized, one-on-one therapy in our penthouse Therapy Suite, overlooking a beautiful patio with a skyline view. Our skilled, friendly therapists have many years’ experience, and focus on providing patients with care and attention, in a pleasant, respectful atmosphere.

We use all types of modalities to relieve pain and to strengthen endurance and muscle elasticity, including deep-heat ultrasound, hot packs, and massage. Our state-of-the-art equipment is new and takes advantage of all recent technological advancements.

We recognize how important it is that patients be able to use standard home equipment before they go home. Our occupational therapy suite includes an ADL training room, where we re-teach people the skills they will now need at home to get in and out of the bathroom, the bathtub, on and off the toilet, and to use standard medicine chests and faucets.
