Looking for hospitals who provide Bedside Physical Therapy

Published

I am looking for hospitals that offer bedside physical therapy. We are looking to move physical therapy to the bedside to improve patient satisfaction. Please also provide a main hospital number or if possible a contact person in the physical therapy department and their direct number.

Thanks in advance for any assitance you are able to provide.

Specializes in Critical Care/ICU.

Doesn't PT usually occur in all ICU's at the bedside if the patient is stable enough and it's ordered?

My dad's in the hospital right now had has PT/OT 2x/day. PT comes to his room. He's in a step-down unit.

I really don't get what you mean?

I don't really get the question, either. Every hospital I've ever worked at, the PT staff have come to the patient's room to provide therapy (granted, some specific procedures require equipment that can't be easily moved, and the patients have to be taken to the PT dept. for those therapies ...)
