Division of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
Methodist offers a full continuum of rehabilitation programs
in South Philadelphia, including: hospital-based acute inpatient
and outpatient rehabilitation and subacute care at the Methodist
Hospital Nursing Center.
Our goal is to help each patient maximize his or her highest
level of function. Our experienced interdisciplinary team
develops personalized programs to help restore optimal independence
and return patients to their homes and communities. We also
encourage family participation in goal setting and the rehabilitation
process.
Rehabilitation patients work one-on-one with therapists but
also benefit from group activities. We provide a therapeutic
environment in which patients receive the clinical, psychological
and social support needed to adjust to new challenges.
The dedicated rehabilitation team includes:
- Physiatrists (Rehabilitation Doctors)
- Rehabilitation Nurses
- Physical Therapists
- Occupational Therapists
- Speech Language Pathologists
- Social Workers
- Psychologists
- Clinical Nutritionists
- Therapeutic Recreation Specialists
When prescribed by a physician, Methodist’s cost-effective
rehabilitation programs are easy to access.
