All patients receive an individualized treatment plan designated specifically to their needs with the collaboration of your physician and a multidisciplinary team. The program utilizes treatment modalities that are overseen by a neurologist and rehabilitation professionals in the fields of physical, occupational and speech therapies and pharmacotherapy. This program provides a comprehensive approach to rehabilitation which includes Coma-Sensory Stimulation, positioning, utilization of adaptive equipment to help prevent contractures and stiffness, sensory perception enhancement and vital stim which aids with swallowing and speech issues. The goal of the Coma Recovery Program is to regain the highest and most independent functional level possible. There is continuous assessment conducted by the team to trace the progress in this process of recovery. Caring for someone who has suffered neurological damage or is currently in a coma can be a daunting task. The program is for individuals and families ready to embark on a unique therapeutic approach to coma recovery through a multidisciplinary program. For more information on our Coma Recovery Program, please call 516-466-3001.
