Immediate family members are an integral part of the
rehabilitation team; therefore, we encourage family involvement
during therapy. The case manager will set up a schedule with you
and your family. Your well-being is our primary concern and is the
determining factor in limiting the number of visitors and the
length of their visit. It is preferred that visitors come when you
have completed your daily scheduled rehabilitation activities. If
you are expecting an unusually large number of visitors for a
special occasion, please inform your nurse. Children may visit
with an accompanying adult after notifying the nursing staff.
Family Involvement
During your first day in The Rehabilitation Hospital, you will be
given an orientation session by your case manager. It is very
important that you and your family understand the goals of the
rehabilitation program as well as our daily routine at the
hospital. Following the completion of your initial evaluation, the
case manager will schedule a conference with you, your family and
your rehabilitation team members to review the results of the
evaluation and the plan of treatment. You will have the
opportunity to discuss your personal goals and to work with the
team to develop a treatment plan and a projected discharge date.
Family members are encouraged to actively participate in the
rehabilitation program.
