At St. Mark Village, our rehabilitation services are second to none. We put a major emphasis on wellness and care in our community.

Promoting long-term recovery and wellness at St. Mark Village Rehab
Helping our residents achieve lifelong wellness is very important at St. Mark Village. And our outstanding rehabilitation services play a major role in this goal.
Physical therapy. This form of therapy includes movements and exercises that treat issues following an injury, disability, or impairment. St. Mark Village Rehab’s physical therapists work with those who have suffered a stroke, heart attack or sports injury, or who are dealing with a chronic condition such as arthritis. The goal is to help restore strength, movement, and functionality, as well as help with fall prevention.
Occupational therapy. This form of therapy helps improve a person’s ability to go about their daily activities, such as bathing, eating, and dressing. At St. Mark Village Rehab, it’s about helping you or your loved one maintain your independence as much as possible by making everyday life a bit easier.
As well as helping with everyday tasks, occupational therapy at St. Mark Village Rehab also may include tasks such as using a phone or computer, doing the laundry, or cooking a meal. This can be especially helpful when an individual is dealing with arthritis, a brain injury, chronic pain, vision problems, the aftermath of a stroke or other similar conditions.
Speech therapy. The rehabilitation services available at St. Mark Village also include speech therapy, which aims to strengthen vocal cords and respiratory muscles through targeted exercises. This can make communication much easier; which can help a senior feel confident and at ease, and reduce the likelihood of isolation and loneliness, both of which can be so damaging to senior health.

Neurological therapy. For those with brain or nerve injuries, neurological therapy can support recovery and help an individual relearn basic functions, improve motor skills, and see an improvement in cognitive abilities. Those with Parkinson’s disease or multiple sclerosis also can benefit. The goal is to help each person return to the highest possible level of independence and function with activities of daily living, as well as with pain management, social skills, stress management, and more.
Cardiac conditioning. Combining education, exercise, and lifestyle counseling, St. Mark Village Rehab therapists assist those recovering from heart attacks, COPD, and pulmonary fibrosis with living a productive, active lifestyle. The focus is on improving endurance and breath control in order to improve cardiovascular health.
Orthopedic rehabilitation. This type of rehabilitation is an excellent choice for those older adults who have had joint replacement surgery, bone trauma, a musculoskeletal injury or a degenerative joint disease. These individuals often have limited function and mobility, pain and other complications. Orthopedic rehabilitation at St. Mark Village can help restore function, flexibility, motion, and strength.
