HOME THERAPY
Physical Therapy. Occupational Therapy. Speech Therapy.
Apple Home Healthcare provides a range of rehabilitation options for patients who need to regain strength and functioning after an injury, surgical procedure, or medical diagnosis. We customize each rehabilitation program around the individual needs of the patient.
Our therapists provide evaluations, treatment, and education for individuals with total joint replacements, orthopedic conditions, neurological disorders, post-surgical procedures, stroke rehabilitation, and speech and swallowing difficulties.
All of our therapists are highly experienced and thoroughly trained. They must complete at least a master’s degree or clinical doctorate degree at an accredited academic institution. Before they can practice, each is required to pass a comprehensive licensure examination. Our therapists are accustomed to working in any home environment. They will work with your schedule to provide services at a time of day when you are most amenable to rehabilitative care.
Medicare, Medicaid and other health insurances often cover the cost of home therapies for seniors and others.
