We provide a wide range of therapies to meet your unique needs:

Inpatient vs. Outpatient Rehab: What’s Right for You?

Your path to recovery depends on your needs and goals. CHRISTUS offers both:

• Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation: Intensive therapy for those recovering from serious conditions like stroke, spinal cord injury, or major surgeries.
• Inpatient Rehabilitation is ideal for patients who need intensive, daily therapy and round-the-clock medical care. It’s often the next step after hospitalization for serious illness or injury.
• Outpatient Rehabilitation works for those who can safely live at home and attend scheduled therapy sessions. It offers flexibility and independence while still receiving expert guidance.

If you’re unsure which option fits best, our team will help guide the decision.

What to Expect During Rehab

From your first visit, we focus on your goals. We begin with a comprehensive evaluation, followed by a personalized care plan. Therapy sessions may include guided exercises, hands-on techniques, adaptive training, and emotional support.

We also offer:

• Progress tracking to celebrate milestones
• Home safety assessments to ease transitions
• Family and caregiver education so loved ones feel confident supporting your recovery

Support for the Whole You

Healing is more than physical. Our caregivers offer encouragement, emotional support, and spiritual care. Whether it’s a reassuring word, a prayerful presence, or a moment of shared joy, you’re never alone in this journey.

Stories of Strength

Behind every recovery is a story of courage. Our patients inspire us every day.

Every milestone matters, and we celebrate them with you.
