Get Rehab, Get Back in the Game
Here’s a little insider secret from the world of healthcare: many nurses and therapists absolutely love working in rehabilitation, and for good reason. Why? Because they witness incredible transformations every single day. Imagine someone arriving in a wheelchair and walking out just days later. That’s the power of rehab.
Rehabilitation delivers real, visible results. It’s deeply rewarding for both clinicians and patients. So, if you’ve been putting it off, ask yourself: what’s stopping you from reclaiming your mobility, strength, or independence?
September 16–22 marks National Rehabilitation Awareness Week, a time to recognize the millions of Americans living with disabilities, injuries, or illnesses that make everyday tasks – like walking, eating, or speaking – a challenge. Whether it’s reduced mobility, balance issues, or loss of coordination, rehab offers hope. And often, progress comes faster than expected.
At Watertown Regional Medical Center, we’re proud to offer both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services, including:
- Physical therapy
