National Rehabilitation Awareness Week

September 23, 2022
In honor of National Rehabilitation Awareness Week, we want to share a little bit about each of our premier therapy services and how we're able to help you or your loved one with your stay at Rockland Ridge! As one of the top rehabilitation facilities in Belpre, Ohio, our skilled nursing facility dedicates itself to developing a plan for healing at your own individualized pace in the ideal atmosphere through therapy.

Taking a closer look at Speech Therapy, this type of therapy is a wonderful service that can enhance the quality of life by addressing difficulties in swallowing, communication/voice, and cognition. Physical Therapy (PT) is another therapy service offered here at Rockland Ridge. One of the focuses of this therapy discipline is strengthening the lower body to regain independence. Physical Therapists assist in areas of walking, stair training, bed mobility and transfers. PT is also a wonderful aid in pain management.

Lastly, Occupational Therapy (OT) plays a crucial role in the resident’s progression in Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). These ADLs can include bathing, dressing, toileting, self-feeding, and various home management skills. Home management skills such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, bed-making, and doing the dishes can be addressed to aid in your return home.



Of course, we wouldn't be able to offer these top-of-the-line therapy services to our residents without our brilliant Therapy Department. Shoutout to each of our Therapists for their continued drive and passion, including Heather Jordan COTA/L, DOR; Dave Angle PT; Katie Dillon PTA; Brenda Junn COTA/L; Gloria Caldwell PTA; Katherine Ruperto SLP; Christine Thomas OTR. Missing from the picture is Cary Hill PTA, Restorative Clinician.
