Physical Medicine
& Rehabilation

Our Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) services in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) are
dedicated to enhancing the recovery process for individuals recuperating from injuries, surgeries,
or chronic illnesses. Our comprehensive approach focuses on improving functional abilities and
overall quality of life.

Key components of our PM&R services include:

Comprehensive Assessment

We conduct thorough evaluations of patient's physical and functional abilities to develop
personalized rehabilitation goals and treatment plans tailored to individual needs.

Pain Management

Our team utilizes a variety of modalities such as heat, cold, ultrasound, and manual therapy
techniques to alleviate pain and improve function. We focus on reducing opioid use and offer in-
house procedures like joint and trigger point injections to manage pain and enhance
rehabilitation progress, increasing the likelihood of a successful home return.

Orthotics and Prosthetics

We assess, fit, and provide training in the use of orthotic devices (e.g., braces) and prosthetics to
support mobility and function, ensuring patients can move with confidence and ease.

Patient and Caregiver Education

Education is a crucial part of our approach. We provide comprehensive guidance to patients and
their families or caregivers on rehabilitation goals, home exercise programs, safety measures, and
strategies for maximizing recovery.

Discharge Planning and Home Transition

Our team collaborates with patients, families, and community resources to plan for a safe
transition home or to another level of care, ensuring continuity of rehabilitation efforts and a
smooth adjustment.

Interdisciplinary Collaboration

We work closely with physicians, nurses, social workers, and other healthcare professionals to
coordinate care, address complex medical needs, and optimize rehabilitation outcomes for each
patient.

Outcome Measurement and Documentation

We use standardized assessments to track progress, document functional gains, and adjust
treatment plans as needed to achieve rehabilitation goals effectively.

Quality Improvement and Evidence-Based Practice

Our commitment to best practices and evidence-based interventions ensures that we deliver
high-quality care, continuously enhancing patient outcomes within the SNF setting.

Expertise in Post-Acute Care

Our highly experienced providers are in your facility 2-3 days a week, focusing on improving
patient outcomes. They offer ongoing nursing education and assistance, aiming to decrease
rehospitalization rates, reduce pain levels, and increase therapy participation. We tailor our
services to meet the unique needs of your facility, patients, and their families. Proactive
communication with family members enhances satisfaction rates, and support from our large
provider group and patient population helps improve admissions and referrals.

Increasing Reimbursement

Our providers work with MDS to add the correct diagnosis codes, ensuring accurate
reimbursement and financial sustainability for your facility.

Assessment, Diagnosis, Prevention, and Treatment

We assess patients for functional deficits and collaborate with the rehab team to minimize
disability and maximize independence. Our goal-setting process considers the needs of both
patients and their families, working to eliminate barriers to home transition or a more home-like
environment.
