Spinal Cord Injury Program

The Spinal Cord Injury Program at Blessing Inpatient Rehabilitation provides special care for patients who have a spinal cord injury due to injury or disease and need to improve physical abilities and/or adaptations to the environment.

Our specialized equipment, along with the clinical expertise of our physiatrist, rehab nurses, physical and occupational therapists assist each patient in the recovery process.

Once admitted to the Blessing Inpatient Rehabilitation Program, you will be evaluated by physical and occupational therapists and examined by specially trained rehab nurses. During your stay, be assured we measure your progress using an inter-disciplinary approach where the physicians, nurses and therapists are in constant communication to develop and deliver the best possible care. All will be working together to assist you with gaining independence with self-care, activities of daily living and mobility.

Throughout rehab, you will have the ability to access Blessing’s room service for nutrition needs, provided around your therapy times.

Prior to your discharge, you and your caregiver will have the opportunity to personally work with the therapists, nurses and discharge planner to assist your caregiver in ways to best meet your healing needs. For example, the nurse will discuss medications and answer questions you might have. The therapists will show your caregiver specially the best way to work with you once you leave the inpatient rehab unit. The discharge planner will work with you to coordinate services you will need after discharge.
