October is National Physical Therapy Month, making it the perfect time to reflect on the importance of maintaining mobility, strength, and independence as we age. At The Farms at Bailey Station, we understand that choosing the right rehab in Tennessee can make all the difference in your recovery journey and quality of life.
Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or simply looking to improve your balance and mobility, we have what you need. Our Jordan River Health Campus offers a comprehensive range of therapies designed to meet your unique needs.
Here, we will share some of the different types of wellness programs available and help you determine which senior wellness program might be the right fit for you.
The Three Core Therapy Services
At the heart of our rehabilitation offerings, we have three core therapeutic services that form the foundation of our senior wellness program. Each addresses different aspects of recovery and independence, creating a holistic approach to healing.
Physical Therapy: Building Strength and Confidence
Our physical therapy program is specifically designed to enhance strength, flexibility, and balance. These are three components of healthy aging. By improving these areas, seniors can reduce the risk of falls and maintain the ability to enjoy daily activities.
Our 4,300-square-foot Therapy Center is equipped with modern therapy and rehabilitation equipment. It features our “Heart and Sole” walking track, which brings creativity to any fitness program.
Whether you’re recovering from a joint replacement or working to prevent future injuries, our therapists create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific goals. As part of our comprehensive rehabilitation services, physical therapy is a wonderful solution to support recovery.
Occupational Therapy: Reclaiming Independence
Occupational therapy focuses on improving task-specific capabilities, such as bathing, dressing, personal hygiene, meal preparation, and more. Our occupational therapists work with you in private treatment rooms to rebuild these skills.
By addressing these daily activities, occupational therapy helps seniors regain confidence in their ability to care for themselves.
Speech Therapy: Enhancing Communication and Cognition
At The Farms, speech therapy goes beyond voice and communication improvement. Our therapists stimulate the brain in various ways to help preserve memory, improve communication abilities, and enhance overall daily living skills.
This is helpful for seniors who are recovering from a stroke, managing cognitive conditions, or addressing swallowing difficulties.
Specialized Programs for Specific Conditions
Beyond our core therapy services, The Farms at Bailey Station offers specialized rehabilitation programs designed to address specific medical needs. These include:
- Orthopedic Rehabilitation: For joint replacements and fractures
- Cardiac Rehabilitation: For heart attack and surgery recovery
- Respiratory Rehabilitation: For conditions like COPD
- Neurological Rehabilitation: For strokes, Parkinson’s, and multiple sclerosis
For seniors requiring 24-hour medical support alongside rehabilitation, these specialized services are coordinated seamlessly with our skilled nursing care, ensuring comprehensive treatment under one roof.
What Makes The Farms Different?
What sets The Farms apart is not only expertise but environment. Our Therapy Garden includes beautifully designed features for nature-based healing and socialization. This garden provides a peaceful setting where recovery becomes more than just physical, but also emotional and spiritual healing.
Our team utilizes advanced therapy equipment and modern rehabilitation technology in our practices. Every aspect of our rehabilitation center is designed to support your journey back to wellness.
Both inpatient and outpatient services are available seven days a week to residents and the public.
Real Results at The Farms
The true measure of any senior wellness program is the impact it has on residents’ lives. One family shared their experience: “Mom was becoming very immobile and had less cognition. In her three months at Jordan River/Shepherd’s Path Assisted Living, she’s become better and better each day.”
The team at The Farms at Bailey Station is trained in the latest rehabilitation techniques. Our team works tirelessly to help patients recover as fully and quickly as possible, enabling them to return to enjoying life their own way.
These rehab success stories inspire us daily and remind us why this work matters so much.
Finding Your Right Fit
Choosing the right therapy program starts with understanding your specific needs. Ask yourself the following questions.
- Am I Recovering from Surgery?
- Depending on how intensive the surgery is, you could benefit from physical rehabilitation or a combination of physical therapy and occupational therapy.
- Do I Struggle With Daily Tasks Like Dressing or Bathing?
- You might benefit from Occupational Therapy. An occupational therapist can help you with these tasks.
- Have I Experienced Balance Issues or Falls?
- Physical therapy could help enhance strength, flexibility, and balance.
- Am I Managing a Chronic Condition?
- Depending on the condition, you might need a combination of therapies, including physical and occupational therapy.
These questions are the first step to figuring out the best treatment for you or your loved one’s situation. At The Farms, our approach is always personalized. Our team works directly with you, your family, and your physician to develop a care plan that addresses your unique situation.
