“We reluctantly put our elderly father into Foothill’s Azheimer’s care program 3 years ago. While the experience could have been really traumatic, Foothills made the transition easy and our dad is really happy over there. We so appreciate their great staff and services. ” – Sue Spalding

Subacute Rehab
Post-Hospitalization Rehab
The dedicated rehab staff—consisting of a physiatrist and several occupational, physical and speech therapists—makes use of current therapeutic methods and state-of-the-art equipment to identify each patient’s rehab needs. Our rehab team works diligently to assist each patient in regaining maximum functioning and facilitate a speedy, safe return to the community. From the first day of rehab, each patient—as well as family members—actively participates in setting attainable goals.
Our state-of-the-art rehab gym includes a therapy pool, which provides both assistive and resistive therapies. The therapy pool offers buoyancy in varying depths, allowing exercises to gradually increase in difficulty. The water’s current can be controlled and modified to vary resistance during exercise, which assists in building strength and balance. Our aquatics program is used in conjunction with our land program to maximize independence.
