Orthopaedic Trauma

Rehabilitation information

Rehabilitation after injury is a critical part of the treatment plan.

Therapists in our Physican Medicine and Rehabilitation group are specialty trained and experienced in working with trauma patients. They offer a continuum of services for patients who have sustained severe or multi-trauma injuries. Recovery for severely injured people starts in the hospital and ends without outpatient therpay. See our article on Phases of Acute Trauma Care.

Our experts can help people:

• Improve mobility, balance, and endurance
• Reduce pain, weakness, or numbness from nerve damage
• Resume vocational, recreational, and social pursuits

Special programs are available to help patients with implants and those with an upper or lower limb amputation.
