We offer the following outpatient rehabilitation programs:
Adaptive Driving
A driving assessment program to individuals that have experienced a medical disability,
helping them regain mobility and independence. A.D.E.P.T. is designed to determine
if a patient has the sophisticated level of physical and cognitive skills necessary
to operate a motor vehicle safely.
Amputee Clinic
HealthSouth Harmarville offers a weekly amputee clinic providing the expertise of
clinicians who work with patients who have suffered an amputation. The team includes
a physiatrist, prosthetist, physical therapist and vocational counselor. Pre and
post prosthetic care is provided to all amputee patients.
Arthritis
For many people the pain of osteoarthritis can become so severe that it disrupts
normal living. Caring for yourself becomes difficult, and handling family or work
responsibilities may become impossible. HealthSouth's arthritis rehabilitation program
helps an individual reduce and manage their pain while increasing their independence.
Balance and Vestibular
Through a multidisciplinary team approach, this program evaluates patients with
persistent dizziness or disequilibrium. This multidisciplinary team evaluation allows
for a timely and more accurate diagnosis of the condition, thus enabling more appropriate
intervention.
Brain Injury
Early rehabilitation is critical to help patients achieve their fullest potential
after brain injury. HealthSouth has established a rehabilitation program that helps
patients achieve and maximize functional and cognitive recovery following a brain
injury. The program enables patients to become more self-sufficient and understand
how to avoid future health problems.
Dialysis
HealthSouth Harmarville provides on-site dialysis on Monday, Wednesday and Friday
following the patient’s therapy program so as not to interfere. Some insurance companies
require patients to receive dialysis off-site, however, Harmarville assists in scheduling
the transportation for these patients to get to and from their appointment.
Diagnostic Services
HealthSouth Harmarville provides general radiology and fluoroscopic exams in addition
to CT scans without contrast. Urodymanic studies and phlebotomy/lab services are
also provided. All Ultrasound studies are completed with the exception of OB studies.
Functional Capacity Evaluations
HealthSouth’s Functional Capacity Evaluation identifies the current physical and
functional abilities of the patient and determines the patient's potential to return
to work and/or if further rehabilitation is required. If indicated, rehabilitation
is initiated to progress the injured worker to the highest level of physical functioning
required to safely return to productive gainful employment.
General Rehabilitation
HealthSouth’s General Rehabilitation Program provides comprehensive medical rehabilitation
services for individuals who have experienced a decline in their physical and cognitive
abilities. This decline may be due to an illness or other medical condition. Our
General Rehabilitation Program is designed to help patients maximize functional
independence; maximize emotional well-being; and resume their previous roles or
modified roles at work, home or leisure.
Hand Therapy
This treatment of the hand and/or upper extremity is offered by extensively trained
therapists specializing in this area. A comprehensive evaluation of the hand and
upper extremity is completed to determine the most appropriate interventions. Conditions
treated include arthritis and rheumatic diseases, hand injuries, industrial accidents/work
injuries, lymphedema, orthopedic conditions, stroke, spinal cord and other neurological
disorders. Treatment programs include custom static and dynamic splinting; fracture,
sprain, and tendonitis programs to manage pain and/or recover range of motion and
strength; post-surgical and post-trauma intervention; management of the neurological
hand / upper extremity to maximize functional use; rehabilitation technologies including
Saebo Flex, Reo, Bioness, and Interactive Metronome.
Industrial Rehab
The HealthSouth Industrial Rehab program model is an aggressive "results-oriented"
approach designed to transition people back to work. The Industrial Rehabilitation
Program is a vital component of the HealthSouth Injury Management and Evaluation
Services model. Functional Restoration is a conceptual model for a continuum of
care, which allows a patient to be placed into an appropriate individualized program.
Industrial Rehabilitation may be a continuance of care started in an earlier phase
or serve as the entry point into the functional restoration program. Our purpose
is to "bridge the gap" between physical rehabilitation, return to work, injury prevention
and case closure.
ITB Program
Intrathecal Baclofen (ITB) therapy is an effective FDA-approved treatment for severe
spasticity, a frequent complication of stroke, MS, brain injury, spinal cord injury,
cerebral palsy or other neurological conditions that result in increased muscle
tone. Patients receiving ITB therapy receive direct infusion of baclofen via a programmable
pump. To be considered for this therapy, a patient must be evaluated by a physician
to determine if he/she is appropriate.
Lymphedema Program
HealthSouth offers the latest techniques available in complex decongestive physiotherapy
to treat lymphedema. Patients are evaluated by a certified lymphedema therapist
who tests the presence and cause of the edematous limb(s) and assesses treatment
options. Individualized treatment programs may include: manual lymph drainage, massage,
and/or gradient sequential pump therapy, custom bandaging, recommendations for exercise
and self care, family education, and procurement of needed day and/or night garments.
Neurorehabilitation
HealthSouth's Neurological Disorders Program meets the needs of patients with chronic
progressive conditions such as Parkinson's disease, or acute remitting diseases
such as Multiple Sclerosis. By following a rehabilitation plan designed to achieve
functional gains, patients become more functionally independent and learn how to
reduce the risk of future medical problems.
Orthopedics
Orthopedic rehabilitation treats musculoskeletal injuries and conditions. HealthSouth's
pathway to recovery for patients with orthopedic conditions helps them achieve and
maintain functional gains in a timely, cost-effective manner. The program is individualized
according to a patient's needs, functional goals and extent of injury.
Pain Management
A Pain Management physician is available at HealthSouth Harmarville on a weekly
basis. Steroid injections are provided after evaluation for medical necessity by
this physician.
Pediatrics
Helping a child achieve his or her full potential following an injury or illness
requires special care and guidance. After many years of treating children, HealthSouth
has established a rehabilitation program to help children return to normal activities
and avoid future health problems.
Pre-Driving Evaluations and On-Road Driving Program
HealthSouth Harmarville offers pre-driving evaluations to provide patients and his/her
doctor information regarding the basic skills needed to resume driving. This service

Spasticity Clinic Patients who have spasticity are evaluated by a physician specializing in this area. The physician will make recommendations for treating the spacticity and may include: rehabilitation, oral medication, ITB treatment, and/or Botox injections.
Spinal Cord Injury
Spinal cord rehabilitation is an intricate and complicated process that requires
a team of experts to enhance a patient's abilities on physical, cognitive and emotional
levels. Based on a patient's limitations, our interdisciplinary team establishes
an individualized treatment plan. Each plan of care incorporates specific methods
that encourage the patient to develop pragmatic problem-solving approaches appropriate
for his or her rehabilitation and continuing care.
Stroke
After many years of helping individuals recover from stroke, HealthSouth has established
a stroke rehabilitation program to help patients achieve functional gains in a timely,
cost-effective manner. This pathway to recovery allows patients to become more functionally
independent and understand how to incorporate lifestyle changes that reduce the
risk of future strokes or other complications.
