Occupational Rehabilitation for Injured
Our primary goal at Methodist's Outpatient Rehab Center is to assist each employer in maintaining a productive and healthy workforce while managing their costs. We have a professional team of physical and occupational therapists to provide treatment for work-related injuries, with the ultimate goal of returning each patient back to work as soon as possible. Our therapists provide the latest in interventions, education and self-management to help you achieve maximum function and prevent re-injury.
