Mayflower is partnering with Key Rehab to offer physical, occupational, and speech-pathology therapy on the Mayflower campus. This includes locations in the Health Center, Beebe Assisted Living, and a suite located in the Pearson building for independent living residents.
Mayflower is now offering a variety of physical movement programs, in response to resident needs identified in a recent survey. Overseeing these new offerings, Jackie Hutchison MPT, CST-T, will serve as Mayflower’s Director of Rehab and Wellness. Jackie holds a master’s in Physical Therapy (“MPT”) from Marquette University and certification in Craniosacral Therapy (“CST-T”) from the Upledger Institute, Palm Beach Gardens FL.
Key Rehab will assign specific licensed and certified therapists to Mayflower. If it is necessary, they will be backed up by additional therapists stationed in Central Iowa.
Besides access at various sites on campus, residents may, in some cases, receive Key Rehab services in their own homes. The services provided will be based on individual patients’ needs, as ordered by their physicians.
Key therapists are experienced in treating the following diagnoses and conditions: Stroke; orthopedic impairment, such as hip fracture, joint replacement, arthritis, shoulder or hand injuries; neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and Multiple Sclerosis; communication disorders; swallowing deficits; generalized weakness and the loss of abilities due to illness or injury.
If you feel that you might benefit from therapy services, consult with your physician, who can prescribe therapy services provided here at Mayflower. Medicare typically covers therapy services if they are medically necessary and ordered by a physician. Please let us know if you have any questions or contact your insurance provider for coverage questions.
