Our Therapy Team
The physical therapist determines care needed for the patient relative to strength, muscle tone, ambulation, sitting, transferring, and general mobility. The occupational therapist evaluates for care needed relevant to the activities of daily living, such as the ability of patients to feed, dress, and groom themselves. Speech therapy determines care needed for speech and swallowing needs. The Vitalstim program allows the speech therapist to stimulate the esophagus and larynx, thus improving the quality of both speech and swallowing. Each area of therapy services confer together to determine the overall plan of care for individual patients. Services are provided on a daily basis. Continued rehabilitataive services are based on goal completions and progress. Our therapists bring a wide range of skills from a variety of healthcare environments to the St. Barnabas rehabilitation therapy program. The team works collaboratively to make your success our success. Don't forget to sign up for our monthly e-newsletter! |

"Best therapy ever!" Dr. Nell Mohney
"I didn't really think St. Barnabas could help me much. When I first saw it, I thought, 'They're so small!' But I was really impressed with the therapists. They were absolutely wonderful! Fun, friendly, and they really cared. I could tell that when I would almost fall and their faces would go white. In fact, everyone at St. Barnabas was wonderful. I've had excellent care.
