What is a Rehabilitation Center?

A rehabilitation center is a facility specializing in therapy and training to help patients recover function and independence after illness, injury, or surgery. These centers provide comprehensive rehabilitation services including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and specialized programs tailored to specific conditions like stroke, spinal cord injury, or joint replacement.

Why rehabilitation centers matter

• Accelerates recovery: Provides intensive, focused therapy that can significantly improve outcomes and shorten recovery time
• Restores independence: Helps patients regain skills needed for daily activities and return to work or home life
• Prevents complications: Reduces risks of secondary health issues through proper rehabilitation techniques and monitoring
