At Prestige Care, an experienced team of medical professionals utilize innovative approaches and an array of rehabilitation equipment to help individuals regain as much strength, balance and endurance as possible.
Our goal is optimal recovery, which means that we help our residents achieve the highest level of functionality as possible. To make this happen, our highly skilled nurses, therapists and technicians work cooperatively with the individual’s physician to implement a customized regime of treatment that may include a combination of physical, occupational, speech therapy and other nursing care.
We also believe that rehabilitative care and treatment should be delivered throughout a resident’s stay to help reduce the occurrence of injuries after they return home. We strive to duplicate as many real life experiences as possible, allowing them to practice and prepare for the move back home.

Speech-language pathologists work with people who cannot produce speech sounds or cannot produce them clearly, problems understanding and producing language, and those with cognitive communication impairments, such as attention, memory, and problem solving disorders. They also work with people who have swallowing difficulties.
Speech, language, and swallowing difficulties can result from a variety of causes including stroke, brain injury or deterioration, and hearing loss.
They teach patients how to make sounds, improve their voices, or increase their oral or written language skills to communicate more effectively. They also teach individuals how to strengthen muscles or use compensatory strategies to swallow without choking or inhaling food or liquid. Speech-language pathologists help patients develop, or recover, reliable communication and swallowing skills. Also see “Speech Therapy”.
