Through a diverse set of inpatient and outpatient services, San Leandro Hospital assists patients in achieving the highest level of rehabilitation possible. In the hospital setting, therapists work as an integral part of the patient’s health care team. Outpatient activity is centered at our Outpatient Rehab Service, located just two blocks from the main hospital.
Outpatient Rehab Service
14207 East 14th Street, San Leandro, (510) 667-4538
Outpatient Rehab Service offers the community a tremendous variety of skilled therapeutic services, aquatic exercise classes and community education. The need for this type of rehabilitation may result from any disease or condition, such as arthritis, that causes a person to be functionally limited. The goals of outpatient rehabilitation are to maximize function, safety and decrease pain in order to allow a person to remain independent using a variety of therapeutic techniques and rehabilitative equipment. The service also focuses on future injury prevention and health maintenance, which includes instruction in safe exercise techniques and fitness principles.
People are often apprehensive when it comes to their ability to overcome physical and functional limitations. However, Outpatient Rehab Service concentrates on setting short-term goals with long-term vision. Individualized treatment plans are based on the individual’s age, activity level, home or work environment and personal goals. The emphasis is on progress, rather than problems and limitations.
Skilled, Experienced Staff
The Outpatient Rehab Service team includes occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech therapists, respiratory care practitioners and a medical director. Designed with patient comfort and convenience in mind, the actual facility includes a spacious therapy gym, occupational therapy clinic and a therapeutic swimming pool. Showers and lockers are also provided with ample, free parking that is level to the entrance.
The Outpatient Rehab Service is open Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call (510) 667-4538.
