Physical Therapy
Returning individuals to their optimal health is the goal of Roxborough Memorial Hospital physical therapists. This goal is achieved by providing individualized treatment programs. Each patient receives a comprehensive evaluation by a licensed therapist who then develops a treatment program that matches the needs and goals of the individual.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapists at Roxborough Memorial Hospital work with adults experiencing a broad range of conditions such as stroke, arthritis, neurological disorders or events, orthopedic injuries and surgeries, work related injuries, fatigue and weakness due to illness, low vision and cognitive impairment. The Occupational therapist completes a comprehensive evaluation, then, in collaboration with the patient, designs and implements a customized treatment program. The focus of treatment may be maximizing functions in terms of arm and hand use, increasing independence in activities of daily living, promoting improved participation in work and leisure activities, and/or health promotion and prevention of future impairments.
Hand Therapy
Our certified Hand Therapists (Occupational and Physical Therapists) provide specialized rehabilitation for patients with injuries and conditions related to the hand, wrist, forearm and elbow. Conditions treated include fractures, dislocations, tendon injuries, crush injuries, nerve conditions and repetitive strain injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome and tendinitis.
Speech therapy
A Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) is a specially trained professional who helps people when they have difficulty communicating or swallowing. SLPs take care of people across the lifespan.
