Rehabilitation Home Care
Restoring quality of life
If you or a loved one is struggling with the need for rehabilitation services, Continuum Home Health care may be able to provide the experience, skill and compassion to help you cope with this difficult situation.
Continuum Home Health’s Connecticut-based rehabilitation counselors provide our patients with the tools to better manage and maintain health, starting in the comfort of familiar home surroundings. Whether you or a loved one is recovering from an injury, surgery, or learning to live with orthopedic, neurological, pulmonary or cardiovascular disorders, Continuum Home Health’s rehabilitation services can help restore the health and functional skills necessary for participating in daily activities at home, school, work or in the community.
Specific in-home rehabilitation services
Continuum Home Health’s specially designed Connecticut home health rehabilitation programs use nurses, rehabilitation counselors and rehabilitation therapists to accommodate the following specific issues and related needs:
- physical therapy, including physical, sports and cardiac rehabilitation, to improve mobility and range of motion, increase muscle strength, reduce chronic pain and restore balance and coordination to reduce the likelihood of falls and tripping – all designed to help patients manage as independently as possible
- occupational therapy and fitness to assist with restoring independence with everyday living and household tasks such as eating, grooming and dressing, as well as vocational rehabilitation and other activities
- speech and language therapy to assist adults and children in learning or regaining the ability to communicate, or with difficulty swallowing or with memory problems
- neurological rehabilitation and cognitive rehabilitation, including elderly rehabilitation, to restore ability loss from stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, or other issues
- skilled nursing and acute care rehabilitation for services such as medication education and management
- home health aides for assistance with walking, bathing, dressing and other daily activities
- establishing daily routines and long-term plans
- nutritional services to assist with supplements and meal planning
- education on treatment and prevention of disease or illness
- improvement of mental stimulation for better cognitive functioning
- crisis intervention and family counseling
- recommending home adaptations and modifications to improve safety and functionality
- assistance in identifying community resources and education for financial and social issues
Advantages of in-home rehabilitation
Continuum Home Health’s in-home rehabilitation patients may have experienced reduced tolerance for out-of-home activities, fear of leaving the home, secondary illnesses, poor compliance with home exercise plans, inadequate family or social support, or inconsistent transportation. For some of our home health rehabilitation patients, in-home rehabilitation is the only realistic option — especially when travel, fatigue or other barriers prevent attendance at traditional outpatient clinic-based therapy.
With Continuum Home Health’s in-home rehabilitation services, patients do not have to find transportation to make it to and from physical therapy appointments. Our services are designed for anyone who, for whatever reason, prefers to have outpatient rehabilitation services in the convenience, comfort, and safety of a home setting.
Many of Continuum Home Health’s patients tend to respond better in an in-home environment. Providing rehabilitation services in patients' homes often results in better outcomes: higher compliance, less-likely relapse, better attendance, more complete participation in therapy, and quicker recovery.
