HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS

  • Do you have a patient who is reporting decreasing ability to manage at home?  Do you think that if they could improve their mobility and function that they would be able to remain in their current living situation longer?

  • Do you have a patient who has been recently discharged from hospital?  Are they medically stable but deconditioned and eager to regain full function and mobility?
