    Rehabilitation Services

    Altru Health System's Outreach Therapy provides comprehensive rehabiliation therapy services at Pioneer  Memorial Care Center.  Each resident receives an individualized plan of care to meet their needs.  Through this program, licensed therapists are available to provide physical, occupational, and speech therapy for conditions such as stroke, heart attack, neurological and orthopedic conditions as well as other illnesses, injuries and situations needing guided recovery and a plan to return to a previous level of care.

    Goals are established based on multidisciplinary evaluations completed at the Care Center with input by physcians, nursing staff and family members, as well as the resident.  Treatment focuses on improving or attaining independence in functional abilities within Pioneer Memorial Care Center and applying those for a possible return home or to another supported living facility.
