Rehabilitation
Your Path to Recovery Starts Here
At Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center, we provide physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Your doctor will recommend the most beneficial therapy for you. Our goal is to help you regain the strength, mobility, and function needed to live a fulfilling life.
Our Approach
If you’ve had surgery or are recovering from a serious injury or illness, activities you once took for granted can suddenly be difficult. Therapy and Rehabilitation Services at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center can help you return to the things that were once important to you and improve your quality of life.
Our goal is to help you become as active, independent and pain-free as possible. We know rehabilitation can be challenging and, at times, frustrating. Our specially trained therapists are partners in your recovery and are committed to your success.
Our services are available to inpatients and outpatients of all ages. We develop individualized treatment plans with your input and based on your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
We do our best to minimize your discomfort. Occasionally when you are first moving in ways you haven’t moved in a while, you may experience an increase in discomfort. Most of the time this is a normal response, but please let your therapist know that this has happened, so they can adapt your program if needed.
We highly recommend you bring comfortable, nonrestrictive clothing or athletic wear. Your clothes should also allow us to evaluate your area of injury, so please dress accordingly. As for footwear, we suggest comfortable, closed-toe shoes, preferably sneakers. If you have any questions, please contact us prior to your first appointment.
