Colonial Poplin, our nursing and rehabilitation center, provides short-term and long-term skilled nursing care and rehabilitation services.
Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation Services
At Colonial Poplin we strive to continuously improve outcomes with a focus on a return to normal function. When a patient begins therapy, we devise individualized short term and long term recovery goals partnering with the patient’s at-home physicians. Our treatment based approach factors in history, current symptoms and clinical evidence in order to achieve maximum results and prevent re-hospitalization following discharge home.
What to Expect from our In-House Rehabilitation Team:
Evaluation of current functional level within 24 hours of admission
Plan of care established by registered therapist along with patient and patient’s support team
Development of realistic short and long term goals
PT and OT treatment up to seven times per week
Durable Medical Equipment available to meet post surgical needs
Available Modified Barium Swallow testing
Daily Restorative programs for patients who do not require or cannot tolerate intensive services
