To better ensure
the highest clinical standards and best practices, Apple does not rely
upon contracted staff. Our employee clinicians include those
who have received the highest academic and professional honors, master's
and doctorally prepared therapists, and university faculty. The majority
of our therapists were drawn from Northwestern Memorial and Rush University
Medical Center when those institutions eliminated their home health divisions,
and others came from highly regarded hospitals and rehabilitation settings
across the metropolitan area.
What
Sets Us Apart
- Apple
therapists have portable ultrasound for in-home use.
- Apple
therapists provide in-home cervical traction with portable Saunders units
- Our
Director of Rehabilitation Services developed the post-operative rehabilitation
protocol for minimially-invasive joint replacement patients
that has been adopted by surgeons at major medical centers
across the city.
- Collaborating
with individual physicians, Apple develops doctor-specific protocols
for patients with particular diseases or problems. This assures that
services provided in the home are precisely aligned with the medical
plan of treatment
and are tailored to each doctor's needs and preferences.
- Apple
provides free exercise classes taught by licensed Physical Therapists
to residents of senior communities. Set to music, the classes are
designed to
be upbeat and fun, and focus on improving posture, breathing,
balance, and flexibility.
They
also give the teaching therapist an opportunity to identify
residents
at risk for falls or injuries and to recommend preventive
intervention
- Apple
collaborates with the staff of senior living communities to upgrade
residents' safety and functional status, with the goal of preventing
accidents so that elders can remain in their homes
with as little risk
for injury as possible
