NeuroStar (NEURO/STROKE REHABILITATION)
The Neuro/Stroke Rehabilitation Program at
Highland Care Center has been designed
specifically for individuals who are recovering
from a stroke or other traumatic brain injury.
Our goal is to help you recover as much
functionality as possible and improve your
physical and cognitive status so you can return
home as quickly and safely as possible.

First step is to design a CUSTOMIZED treatment
plan based on your needs and abilities which
will teach you how to move correctly again.
Prior to admission, the Interdisciplinary Team
(therapists, nurses, social workers and other
related health professionals) will review the
clinical information provided by your acute care
facility in order to familiarize the team with
the clinical care you
received prior to transfer to Highland Care and th

recommendations of the acute care physicians
therapists. During your first few day at Highland
Care Center, members of the Interdisciplinary
Team, led by a board-certified physician, will
assess your current level of functioning,
discuss your current physical cognitive status
with you and your family (as permitted) and ask
you to define YOUR GOALS (ambulate a designated
distance, climb steps, drive a car).
