ER WAIT
iOur team of professionals at the Southern Tennessee Regional Health System Rehabilitation Unit work with individuals to help them achieve their physical goals on the way back from an injury or illness.
Patients who have been physically affected by an illness or injury perform exercises and activities which help them gain mobility, balance, and joint flexibility, thereby achieving the highest possible function within the limits of their injury or illness.
Our goal is for each patient and their family to be completely satisfied with the care that is received. Our highly trained professionals offer care and gentle encouragement to both the patient and the family.
