The core of Phoenix Center for Rehabilitation and Pediatrics is a  compassionate, caring team with years of knowledge and expertise.  

Amputee Rehab

Our highly regarded Alzheimer's/Dementia programs offer residents comfort, stimulation and socialization in a secure environment.  Our specialized staff evaluates each dementia patient and creates a plan of care that best suits that individual.  Having social interaction proves to slow the progression of dementia and therefore we encourage socialization through group activities and appropriate therapies.

Dementia is not a single disorder, but rather a combination of age-related symptoms involving a loss of mental skills and deteriorating brain function. Patients with dementia gradually lose memory, communication skills, the ability to reason, and the facility to complete the tasks of everyday living.

Amputation Therapy

Our Bariatric Program helps our residents  lose weight and regain mobility. The program provides an interdisciplinary approach for the severely obese patient and combines rehabilitation, weight loss management, behavioral techniques, nutrition education, stress management and group support.

Residents receive intensive physical and occupational therapy that helps promote mobility and independence. Exercise is a major focus of the program. 

Our dedicated units offer specialized equipment and living accommodations necessary to treat bariatric residents in a comfortable and safe environment. Daily recreation programs provide computer access, movies, exercise groups, entertainment and a variety of other activities.

Dietitians plan healthy menus and teach residents about nutrition facts and how to make healthy food choices. Residents can choose from a wide variety of nutritious meals that are based on individual food preferences and medical status.

Individual, group and family counseling is provided as well as some form of daily psychotherapy by our full-time social workers. Weekly wellness meetings encourage communication between participants and staff providing support, validation and camaraderie. Residents return home with tools they need to develop and maintain a healthy, productive life.

We do understand that obesity can be associated with many life threatening illness as well as emotional suffering. Our program is the perfect place to take the first steps back  to physical and emotional wellness.



Bariatric Care

Cardiac Rehabilitation

__Intravenous, or IV, therapy__ has become a frequent treatment technique at skilled nursing facilities across the country. IV therapy is sometimes referred to as a drip, since many IV therapy systems employ a drip chamber designed to prevent any air from entering the bloodstream. IV therapy offers numerous benefits, including correcting fluid imbalances and administering medications.

Many patients admitted to a hospital require some form of IV therapy, while some patients may need IV therapy on a long-term basis. As typical patient hospital stays are becoming shorter, IV therapy can be a valuable treatment method that is performed in an extended care facility under the direction of a physician and carried out by skilled nursing staff.

IV Therapy

__Hospice care__ provides medical services, emotional support and various other resources for patients who are in the last stages of a terminal illness such as cancer or heart failure. Hospice care also provides the patient's loved ones with the support they need to deal with the difficulties, as well as the emotional impact, of caring for a terminally ill patient. The primary goal of hospice care is to provide patients with the ability to pass on without pain and with dignity.

Stroke Recovery

Tracheostomy Care

__Respiratory medicine__, otherwise known as pulmonology, is a subspecialty of internal medicine that deals with a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic services for patients with conditions affecting the lungs and respiration, or breathing. The focus of respiratory care is to provide relief to individuals suffering from chronic lung and airway diseases.  We utilize BPAP and CPAP a   part of our respiratory treatment.  CPAP stands for Constant Positive Airway Pressure, in other words, the pressure never varies. BPAP, or BiPAP, Bi meaning two, has two different pressures.

Ventilator Care

A wound is a break in the skin or tissues that may be caused by an accident, injury, surgery, disease or several other factors, and often involves bleeding, redness, swelling, pain, tenderness and other symptoms. They may occur nearly anywhere on the body. While many wounds can be treated at home by simply cleaning and bandaging the wound, more severe wounds may require professional care.

Many patients with skin ulcers, burns and other types of wounds face difficulty with the healing process for these troubling wounds, especially if the patient is diabetic. There are several different treatment options available for wounds resistant to conventional therapies. Some of these may include creams, ointments, synthetic skin grafts and other therapies that promote natural healing within the skin to avoid wound complications.

We are proud to offer patients many advanced solutions to their wound healing problems. It is important for wounds to remain clean and free of debris and bacteria in order to properly heal and prevent infection, so proper dressings that are changed on a regular basis are essential. We provide wound care treatment that is conducive to healing and helps lead toward a quick and efficient recovery, while keeping cosmetic concerns in mind as well.

Your doctor will determine which type of wound care is best for you after an initial evaluation of your wound size, location and severity.


__Diabetic Wound Management__

People with diabetes are at high risk for developing problems with their feet. Ulcers and other wounds commonly form on the bottom of the foot and can easily become infected or lead to other serious complications. Ulcers may develop as a result of poor circulation, lack of feeling in the feet, irritation or trauma.

Once a wound has been detected, it should be treated immediately in order to prevent complications from developing. Diabetic wound treatment focuses on relieving pressure from the area and removing dead skin cells and tissue through a process called debridement. The wound is then medicated and dressed to prevent infection and promote healing. For more severe wounds, patients may be required to wear special footwear or a brace to relieve pressure and irritation to the wound.
