Physical Therapy

The Health Link Physical Therapy team promotes wellness, healthy lifestyle choices, and injury prevention. We help patients maintain their physical health and self-awareness to achieve independent mobility. By following each patient’s physician-prescribed care plan and employing proper educational methods, we prevent further deterioration. Our physical therapists assist a diverse range of patients, from those recovering from surgery or injury to those needing geriatric care, offering services from brief check-ins to round-the-clock coverage. Together, we address health challenges and work toward restoring the highest possible level of independence, both at home and in the community.

Physical Therapy for Geriatric Needs

We understand that having us in your home, especially due to aging related issues, can feel like the end of independence or the loss of privacy, but this doesn’t have to be an ending.  We view our time with you as a new beginning and our goal is to ensure the longevity in your quality of life.  Our staff is knowledgeable and are experts in physical rehabilitation.  Our purpose is to help those exhibiting visible physical decline, growing mental confusion and a sudden or rising inability to execute daily tasks.

The Health Link Geriatric Care Managers evaluate, plan, oversee and manage patient healthcare and quality-of-life. We are proactive in our physical therapy approach and prioritize client education to reduce the risk of hospitalizations, nursing facility admissions and rising healthcare costs. We are here to listen to patient concerns, make home visits and provide recommendations to further every patient’s quality of life and regain their independence.
