Spinal Cord Injury Care

Services

Even before you are admitted, our medical professionals will work with you, your doctor, and your family members to identify needs. The result is an individually designed treatment program that matches the level of care you require. If our inpatient spinal cord program best meets your needs, the first step will be an evaluation with our multidisciplinary team of specialists. A physiatrist, a physician specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation, leads this team. You will learn about equipment that may help you become more independent and about community resources that can help you achieve a more independent lifestyle. Your individual program will include care from the following healthcare specialists:

  • Physiatrists
  • Rehabilitation nurses
  • Physical therapists
  • Occupational therapists
  • Care coordinators
  • Peer counselors

Additional healthcare providers may serve on your team of specialists depending upon your specific needs. These could include respiratory therapists, speech-language pathologists, psychologists, or social workers. A wide variety of comprehensive inpatient and outpatient programs are available:
