Resources & Support Groups

Many hospital departments work closely with Rehabilitation and Therapy. Our services are provided to patients who suffer from cancer, heart disease, traumatic injuries, neurological disorders and many other conditions. We treat both children and adults, and our treatment plans vary in length. Because we touch so many areas, we can offer a wide array of resources to our patients, including:

Stroke Support Group

Patients with a history of stroke (as well as their family and caregivers) are invited to join this group to discuss their experiences, their struggles and the impact therapy has had on their lifestyle. Members encourage each other on their stroke recovery journey. Click here to register or call (225) 381-6535.
