SENIOR REHABILITATION IN COVINGTON, LA | CHRISTWOOD
Guiding you on the road to recovery.
Sometimes life throws you a curveball. At Christwood, our rehabilitation center can help get you back in the game. Our multi-disciplinary team of physical, occupational, and speech therapists, registered nurses, and licensed nurses provides both inpatient short-term rehabilitation stays as well as outpatient therapy in our spacious therapy gym. As an inpatient, you’ll enjoy a comfortable, private suite designed to accommodate your needs as you make the transition from hospital to home. But whether you choose inpatient or outpatient treatment, our goal is to help you recover quickly and safely so you can get back to the life you love.
“It’s a great comfort to me that I can recover from surgery or illness at Christwood rather than go to a place that’s unknown to me. If either my husband or I need care, it’s here so we will remain close in any circumstance.”
INPATIENT SHORT-TERM REHAB
Advantages of inpatient rehabilitation
Following surgery, injury, or illness, all you want to do is get better as quickly as possible. Inpatient rehabilitation at Christwood may be your best route to a faster recovery. Here’s why:
Ability to focus solely on therapy.
If you require intensive recovery, you can focus all your efforts on your therapy without distractions. And when that small voice in your head wants to slack off, your care team will be there to motivate you and help you reach your goals.
No transportation concerns.
Instead of having to drive to your therapy sessions or arrange for transportation, you can stay on-site, get the therapy you need, and enjoy the amenities and services provided on campus.
A safe environment.
You can stay in a private suite designed for comfort and safety. As you begin to move around, our caring team will assist you to reduce the risk of falling or injuring yourself.
Healthy, chef-prepared meals.
Instead of having to prepare your own meals at home, you can order from our menu. You’ll enjoy the same delicious food that’s served in our restaurants.
Peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is physical therapy?
Physical therapy helps improve range of motion, muscle strength, coordination and balance, and general conditioning. At Christwood, physical therapists work with your doctor to create a treatment plan to help you recover from illness, injury, or surgery.
How does occupational therapy differ from physical therapy?
Physical therapy helps you move better with less pain. Occupational therapy helps you perform daily activities that have become difficult due to injury or a disabling condition. Adaptive techniques and devices can help compensate for any impairments.
When is speech therapy needed?
If you or a loved one is having difficulty understanding language, speaking clearly, recalling the right words to express yourself, or have problems swallowing or eating, a speech therapist can help. If the problems have occurred after an illness or injury, you should speak with your doctor about seeing a speech pathologist.
