Mission Moments from Our Rehabilitation Department

Every day, our Rehabilitation team makes a difference in the lives of our patients through Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapy.

From helping patients regain strength and mobility, to restoring independence in daily activities, to improving communication and swallowing, their work supports recovery at every stage.

These moments may happen quietly, but they are meaningful. A patient taking their first steps again. Completing a task independently. Finding their voice.

We are proud of our Rehabilitation team and the care they provide to our patients and our community.

Thank you for the work you do every day!

This month we celebrate the incredible impact of Occupational Therapy and the professionals who help people regain independence, confidence, and quality of life.

Occupational Therapists help patients return to the activities that matter most—from getting dressed and preparing meals to returning to work, caring for family, and enjoying hobbies. Through compassion, creativity, and clinical expertise, OTs empower patients to overcome physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges so they can live life to the fullest.

Occupational Therapy is about helping people participate in the everyday activities that make life meaningful.

We would like to give a special THANK YOU to our amazing Occupational Therapist:
Amanda Griggs

Amanda, your dedication to our patients, your compassion, and the care you provide every day make a tremendous difference in our clinic and in the lives of the people we serve.

We appreciate all that you do!

Happy OT month!

Beginning Monday, March 30 through the end of July, the Main Entrance and Community Room entrance will be closed due to construction.

Please use the entrances near the Emergency Department to access Memorial Medical Center. Signage will be posted outside and throughout the facility to help guide you.

At this time, Registration has been relocated near the Emergency Department and can be accessed from both entrances off N. Benavides Street.

Patients and visitors may park in the Emergency Room parking lot or the side parking lot. Staff have been asked to park near the closed entrances to keep parking available closer to the open entrances.

Thank you for your patience as we complete these improvements.

Luby's will remain open, but note that our Main Entrance will be closed. Please use the entrances near the Emergency Room as the main entrance. Thanks!
