This month, we are excited to highlight Janice as our Therapy Patient of the Month. Janice entered our facility unable to bear weight on one of her lower extremities, which significantly impacted her ability to complete daily living tasks, transfer from seated surfaces, and perform the mobility needed to safely return home.
Janice has shared the emotional challenges that accompany such injuries, in addition to the physical demands of recovery—especially after being fully independent prior to her hospitalization. During these conversations, we were grateful to hear her express appreciation for Medilodge of Yale’s well-rounded approach to her recovery.
Each day, Janice enters our therapy gym with a smile, motivated and ready to work toward her goals. She is now walking with the assistance of one person and a walker, managing steps with minimal assistance, and completing her daily living tasks with contact guard assistance (also known as touching assistance for balance).
As we continue her therapy to further build her skills and ensure a safe return home, we are truly excited to celebrate Janice’s progress and successes!
