At Jenkins County Medical Center, our patients can receive inpatient Physical Therapy while on our Swing Bed Rehab Program.

Patients receiving rehabilitation services will be able to benefit from our outpatient rehabilitation facility after discharge.
Our Occupational Therapy focuses on helping patients regain their independence and ability to achieve their daily activities. This can include bathing, dressing, and eating or providing helpful techniques for those recovering from a stroke or injury. These daily tasks are among many different areas that our team will focus on with the individual. Each care plan is developed to serve the needs of the individual patient.
Occupational Therapists and assistants help our adult patients in our hospital’s Swing Bed program to recover from injury or illness. We also work closely with stroke and post-op patients who may need assistance returning to living independently. Our team will provide helpful information and equipment to our patients, ensuring they are able to feel comfortable after they are discharged from our facility.
