Amputation Therapy
In the United States, an estimated 2 million individuals live with limb loss, a figure that is projected to rise in the coming years. Annually, approximately 185,000 people undergo amputations, with below-the-knee procedures being the most prevalent. As these numbers increase, so does the importance of specialized rehabilitation services.
Empowering Recovery and Independence
The Phoenix Center's Amputation Rehabilitation Program is designed to empower individuals following limb loss. Our primary objective is to restore function and enhance the ability of our residents to perform daily self-care. We understand the challenges faced by new amputees and provide constant support to guide them towards successful and independent living.
Customized Prosthetic Training
For those eligible for prosthetic devices, our program offers comprehensive preparatory training. The journey to adapting to a prosthesis is unique to each individual, requiring patience, perseverance, and personalized care. Our skilled physical and occupational therapists work closely with each resident, developing tailored strategies that align with their personal goals and lifestyles.
Holistic Approach to Care
Our interdisciplinary care team prioritizes all aspects of the recovery process, including medication management, pain control, and incision healing. By addressing the physical, emotional, and practical needs of our residents, we create a nurturing environment conducive to healing and reintegration into the community.
Returning Home and Beyond
We focus on equipping our residents with the skills, confidence, and support needed to navigate their environments confidently, whether at home or in the community. Our program is not just about rehabilitation; it's about rebuilding lives with dignity and respect.
At The Phoenix Center, we are committed to providing the highest quality care and support for individuals undergoing the life-changing journey of amputation and recovery. Our goal is to ensure that every resident has the opportunity to achieve their maximum potential for independence and quality of life.
