Complete Restorative Services

Like our skilled nursing services, Finger Lakes Visiting Nurse Service provides a variety of licensed rehabilitation services to patients right in their homes. Our highly-experienced therapists provide care following a multi-disciplinary team approach. Our goal is to help patients become independent again while ensuring their safety.

  • Physical therapists at FLVNS provide therapeutic procedures to help develop, maintain, and restore a patient’s maximum mobility and function throughout life. This includes providing treatment in circumstances where movement and function are hindered by age, injury, disease, or environment. Programs may include range-of-motion, strength, balance, coordination, endurance, weight-bearing, pain relief, and functional ability exercises.
  • Occupational therapists at FLVNS help patients of all ages regain independence and their ability to perform activities of daily living, such as dressing, bathing, grooming, meal preparation, and toileting. In addition, therapists assess and instruct patients in the usage of various adaptive equipment in order to maximize self-sufficiency and promote safety. Occupational therapists help patients not only to improve their basic motor functions and reasoning abilities, but also to compensate for permanent loss-of-function. Our goal is to help patients live independent, productive, and satisfying lives.
  • Speech therapists provide services to increase patients’ ability to achieve functional and speech independence, to improve oral motor functioning, and ensure families’ and caregivers’ understanding, interaction, and participation. FLVNS therapists also evaluate and treat individuals with swallowing difficulties.
