Rehabilitation at WoodHaven centers around therapy gyms that have Activities of Daily Living Suites so folks can practice the basics, and the team of physical, speech, and occupational therapists build daily plans for each person, using techniques like diathermy, vital stimulation for swallowing, and electrical stimulation to support stronger joints and muscles, so whether it's short-term rehab after a hospital stay or longer-term therapy, there's help available. Assisted living services make daily life a little easier, with help for bathing, dressing, housekeeping, laundry, and medicine reminders, all in private or semi-private suites, and meals are served right to rooms if needed, plus on-site amenities like a salon, internet, and cable, social activities, and indoor and outdoor gathering spots, which folks seem to enjoy. There's transportation help for appointments or events and a local senior living advisor folks can talk to for guidance if they have questions about moving in or getting connected.
