You want to get back to your normal activities as quickly as possible after orthopedic surgery. We want to make that happen. Physical therapy and rehabilitation play a big part in your recovery.
Rehabilitation specialists at New Hanover Regional Medical Center Orthopedic Hospital work closely with you to help you regain function and movement. You will have rehabilitation services in the hospital and often after you return home.
We’ll Develop a Plan Just for You
Your therapists from NHRMC Rehabilitation Services will consult with your physicians and you to develop a plan that meets your goals and needs. Plans are flexible and take into account your progress and challenges. Our comprehensive orthopedic rehabilitation program includes:
Your rehabilitation begins while you are in the hospital after your surgery. Our highly skilled and experienced therapists work with you at your bedside until you can move around the room and the hospital.
You may need longer term rehabilitation at NHRMC Rehabilitation Hospital on our 17th Street campus. This facility provides round-the-clock care from skilled rehabilitation nurses and physical therapists. Your rehabilitation team is devoted to making you feel comfortable and helping you gain strength and function, so you can return home as quickly as possible.
Your orthopedic outpatient rehabilitation depends on your surgery, condition, and physicians’ recommendations. Our team members work with you to advance you toward your rehabilitation goals.
You may qualify for rehabilitation services at home. These comprehensive services are provided by NHRMC Home Care.
