After a stroke, serious illness, or a fall, receiving care at an inpatient rehabilitation center offers many advantages as you or a loved one recuperates. At these facilities, seniors can stay for a few days or weeks so they don’t have to drive or be transported to and from the clinic. Recovery is both emotionally and physically challenging, so here’s how access to a supervised and monitored environment helps.

What Do Inpatient Rehabilitation Centers Offer?

1. Motivation & Support

Inpatient rehabilitation centers provide around-the-clock care to their patients. Seniors staying at these facilities have opportunities to interact with other patients, share their experiences, and motivate each other to get well as soon as possible. This option can also offer an emotional outlet via social interaction.

2. Customized Treatment & Therapy

Depending on the reasons for patients’ injuries, medical professionals tailor treatment plans and set physical therapy schedules to ensure patients receive adequate care as they recover. They have access to physicians, therapists, social workers, nurses, and other medical professionals to help them convalesce quickly.

For example, if someone broke a hip and received surgery to fix it, their treatment plan might include exercises to regain strength, balance, and movement. These measures also prevent blood clots, pneumonia, and bedsores that can stem from immobility.

3. On-Track Recovery

Twenty-four-hour care from medical professionals and support from fellow patients make it easy to stick to a rehabilitation routine. As you recover, set goals and build new habits with the help of licensed caregivers. Take advantage of their expertise to ensure you reach the milestones you set.
