๐ŸŒฟ Meaningful Therapy, Meaningful Outcomes at Wachusett! ๐Ÿ’š

Meet Diane, one of our long-term care residents and a former gardenerโ€”or, as she proudly calls herself, a โ€œlandscape architect!โ€ ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒฑ When Diane expressed how much she wanted to get outside, our Rehabilitation Team found a meaningful way to incorporate her love of gardening and the outdoors into her therapy sessions.

๐Ÿ’ก Did you know Medicare Part B may cover medically necessary Physical and Occupational Therapy for nursing home residents? These services can help eligible residents improve or maintain function, strength, mobility, and independence when Medicare requirements are met.

Through her Medicare Part B therapy benefit, Diane has been working toward maintaining and increasing her strength and functional independence in the place she calls home. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿก

๐Ÿ‘ A special thank-you to our Wachusett Rehab Team for collaborating on treatment and incorporating activities that are meaningful to Dianeโ€”helping maximize her independence while letting her enjoy what she loves! ๐ŸŒทโ˜€๏ธ
