Range of Motion(ROM)

Designed to maintain flexibility in residents with more of a chronic presentation, and to help prevent further contracture. These exercises also provide kinesthetic stimulation through 1-1 active, active-assisted or passive ROM movements of the major joints.

Walking Programs

Designed to help maintain the ability of residents to reliably weight-bear, and to allow continued manual transfers with or without the assistance of staff. This program also boasts the benefits that walking provides, such as increased circulation and mobility, improved digestive function, maintenance of strength in the ambulatory muscles, proprioceptive stimulation and improved respiratory excursion.

Designed to help stimulate the proprioceptive system and improve balance in order to help prevent falls, using varying protocols including weight-bearing, strengthening, and ball exercises in either an individual or group setting.

Fun and Fitness Program
