Welcome to the Geriatric Rehabilitation Program at Toronto Rehab, where we provide both active functional rehabilitation and psychiatric services to the medically complex and frail older adult population. Our interdisciplinary team has a shared commitment to helping older adults living with multiple health problems to be more active at home and in their communities.
Working side by side with patients and their families, we help seniors who have experienced a decline in function, due to a recent hospitalization or illness, to improve their mobility and balance; navigate changes associated with aging and memory loss; manage acute and persistent pain conditions; and provide falls prevention strategies so that they are able to best optimize activities as part of their daily life.
Our program includes two specialized inpatient services: the Musculoskeletal and Geriatric Rehabilitation Unit and the Specialized Dementia Unit, as well as outpatient geriatric rehabilitation and geriatric psychiatry services.
