The Jewish Home gives all residents the
full opportunity to maximize their potential through skilled
and restorative rehabilitation services. Our goal is for the residents
to live as independently as possible.
Each day, nearly half the residents are scheduled to be seen in Rehabilitation. That works out to approximately 3,000 residents
a year and 24,000 visits. A broad complement of services is provided
to the Home’s residents
by a highly-trained staff of licensed therapists and aides.
