Day Hospital Program
Children who require in-patient rehabilitation often come to a point in their recovery where they are able to transition to home, but reaching their full recovery potential is dependent on medical and rehabilitative care that cannot be met by their school or a community outpatient program.
Our Approach
Our Day Hospital Program provides children the opportunity to continue to receive high intensity therapeutic intervention with daily medical oversight and the support of our interdisciplinary team throughout the day and then return to the comforts of home. Children receive 3-5 hours of therapeutic services daily 3-5 times a week. An individualized care plan is developed and reviewed with parents and team members on a regular basis.
