Pulmonary Rehab

Any rehabilitation program must be focused on improving recovery. Our pulmonary rehabilitation program is designed from the ground up to reduce recurring hospitalizations as much as possible. We provide high level care for pulmonary rehab candidates in a skilled nursing facility for a better long-term outcome.

We have a facility pulmonologist who leads our committed respiratory team. Our respiratory staff also includes a licensed respiratory therapist who creates a customized respiratory plan just for your loved one. We use daily assessments and treatments in order to constantly monitor for early signs of potential complications. We also custom design a supplemental exercise program for each resident as well as education on disease and medications.
