Vanguard Home Health fosters patient wellness, and healthy lifestyle choices as well as injury and motion loss prevention. In addition, Our Team assists patients in the maintenance of their physical state and self-awareness to help them achieve independent and functional mobility. By communicating with the patient’s primary physician we use educative methods, and prevention of further deterioration is accomplished. Our physical therapists work with a wide variety of patients who have suffered an injury, are recovering from a surgical procedure, or require geriatric care from brief check-ins to round-the-clock coverage. The overarching goal is to be in control of symptoms and eliminate their cause rather than being led by them. As risk factors lessen and the patient’s condition improves, therapy routines will be expanded in order to achieve the greatest possible amount of independent mobility. Services include, but are not limited to:
Assessment and evaluation of the status
Recommendation and use of assistive devices, prosthetics, and orthotics
Instruction in gait, transfer, and other mobility skills
