REHABILITATION
Restoring and maintaining functional independence is important to healthy aging.
Intensive, goal-directed inpatient rehabilitative therapy after an acute event or illness,
musculoskeletal injury, surgery or hospitalization, is key to ensuring that patients can
return to active and healthy independent living wherever possible. Our Rehabilitation
services focus on older adults who have complex needs due to multiple health conditions,
physical impairments, recent functional decline and cognitive change.
The Charlotte and Lewis Steinberg Family Rehabilitation Wing has two rehabilitation units
and admits patients based on their level of tolerance.
The units offer client-centred, goal-directed restorative care, therapies and interventions
that are guided by an evidence-based approach to enhance mobility, functional
independence, and improve the physiological, cognitive and psychosocial well-being
of patients.
An application can be sent by the patient's healthcare team in acute care through
the Resource Matching and Referral (RMR) system or via fax: 416-785-2471
