Crowell Memorial Home Blair Nebraska


Therapy Program

Crowell Home provides a full range of therapies for residents who need their services because of illness, injury or the normal aging process.  With their help, many of our residents have been able to return to their own home or move to an assisted living setting.

Therapies include physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy.  Our physical therapists emphasize restoring function and developing skills that will make residents more mobile and safe in their living environment.

Shown on the left is our Physical Therapy Assistant Beth Holdridge.


Occupational therapy is designed to increase a resident’s independence and self-sufficiency, often using adaptive equipment.

Speech/language therapists provide treatment to restore verbal expression and provide swallowing studies to restore the resident’s normal (swallowing) eating patterns.

 

Once a resident has finished their therapy, they are released to our in-house restorative department.  The goal of the restorative program is to maintain the residents at the highest level of functioning they achieved through therapy.
