Physical Therapy

Evergreen Rehabilitation’s Physical Therapy programs utilize highly-trained Physical Therapists (PT) and Physical Therapist Assistants (PTA) to develop, maintain and restore maximum movement and functional ability throughout the lifespan.

This includes providing services in circumstances where movement and function are threatened by aging, injury, disease or environmental factors. Physical Therapy involves the interaction between physical therapists, patients/clients, other health professionals, families, care givers, and communities in a process where movement potential is assessed and goals are agreed upon, using knowledge and skills unique to physical therapists.

Treatment may focus on pain control; instruction in new equipment such as wheeled walkers and canes; transfer, bed mobility and ambulation training; wound care; caregiver education; fall prevention; balance training; and coordination training.
