Therapy Services
Therapy services include Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech

who are limited or disabled by injuries or disease. Occupational Therapists
help persons who have physical problems that prevent them from performing
activities of daily living. They help patients increase strength in their
upper extremities. Speech Therapists work to develop and restore speech
in persons who have communication disorders as a result of injury or disease,
such as a stroke.
