Therapy Services

At McKnight Place, we understand that as care needs change, so does the kind of support your loved one requires. That’s why our services are thoughtfully designed to provide older adults with the highest quality skilled nursing care, personal support, and everyday comfort they need to thrive.

Our caring and experienced team works with residents to achieve mobility, independence and a vibrant quality of life through a full range of onsite therapy services!

The list of on-site therapy services available at McKnight Place include:

Physical Therapy

The goal of physical therapy is to restore, maintain, and promote optimal physical abilities to improve and enhance quality of life. Our skilled therapy professionals focus on strengthening, restoring mobility, improving fitness levels, and reducing pain.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy services are available to assist you in meeting your individualized goals. Our therapists work with our short-term stay residents to ensure a successful return to their homes. The occupational therapy team focuses on maximizing your ability to participate in activities of daily living through adapting tasks, strengthening, and education.

Speech Therapy

Speech and language pathologists can work with you to address a variety of concerns. Communicating your wants and needs and the ability to enjoy a meal while socializing with others are important factors contributing to a positive quality of life. Speech therapists also help recommend diet plans for residents who have swallowing difficulties.

Restorative Therapy

The goal of restorative therapy is to maintain your highest level of independence. Restorative therapy is an ideal option to maintain your mobility, balance, and strength. Our restorative team can help you accomplish the exercise programs designed for you as part of a restorative therapy plan.

Skilled Nursing

Our skilled nursing community is a place where you can go to recover, rehabilitate or receive quality, long-term care. Whether you need to stay for a short while after a surgery or other medical event, or you need round-the-clock licensed nursing care, skilled nursing provides clinical resources in a supportive, comfortable setting.

Long-term Care

Long-term care refers to a variety of services that support individuals who are no longer able to care for themselves independently due to chronic illness, disability, memory loss, or other age-related conditions. Unlike short-term care, which focuses on recovery and rehabilitation, long-term care is ongoing and designed to meet both medical and non-medical care needs over an extended period.

Short-term Care

Sometimes you need extra time after a hospital stay to recover before you can head home. Or maybe you experienced a medical event and you could benefit from around-the-clock care. If you need a little extra time and assistance, you may be referred to a skilled nursing community to help you get back on your feet.
