Benefits of Rehabilitation Care for Seniors After an Injury

DevObal Admin • June 17, 2022

Why Enroll in Elderly Rehabilitation Care After Injury or a Medical Event?

When you enroll in post-op or rehabilitation care, no matter what age you are, you’re enrolling in a service that will help you restore functionality back to (or close to) your body’s original state. This is no different for seniors after surgery, injury or other medical events. At Elite Home Care, we offer on-site rehab and post-op assistance so you or your loved one can get back to independent living as fast as possible.


Benefits of Rehabilitation Care

  • Reduce the risk of a fall –Our on-site doctor(s) can help patients discover techniques to prevent falling or prevent falling on fracture-prone areas. Did you know that 87% of all fractures in the elderly community are due to falls?
  • Lower risk of injury – Rehabilitation care aids seniors with exercises to reduce the risk of another fall due to lack of stability.
  • Lower risk of chronic conditions – By seeing a doctor, you are lowering the risk of recurring or chronic conditions like hip and back pain or arthritis.
  • Being independent – After completing a rehabilitation program, the likelihood that a senior returns to independent living increases by nearly 80%!

While most elderly injuries come from a fall, sometimes that injury results in the need for surgery. We offer post-operational care services to help restore range of motion in the affected area. Since surgical operations are more intrusive, you can expect that a return to full functionality will take longer than rehabilitation care for a fall without major injury.

Do You Offer Rehabilitation Care Services After a Stroke?

Our locations across the upstate and Horry County provide on-site physicians to help guide every person into the right situation. Typically, after a stroke, a person is transferred to a hospital for acute care. When that person is safe to return home or to communal living, we can help provide rehab services such as mobility training and motor skill exercises when the time is right.
