Music therapy (Fort Collins location)
UCHealth Rehabilitation Unit – Poudre Valley Hospital is the home of our internationally recognized music therapy program. Research has shown that a specific application of music during therapeutic interventions can increase stamina and activity tolerance, while improving overall quality of movement.
Family-centered care philosophy
We recognize that families play a vital role in patient recovery. In fact, we encourage it. We built our facilities to make it easier for patients and their family members to be active participants of the recovery process.
We provide care based on best practice standards, using state of the art technology. Patients learn from interactions with each other and engagement with their family members. Family training is an integral part of success as patients recover and prepare to transition home.
Our care management team works actively with patients and family members to prepare for the transition home. This is a dynamic process including understanding insurance benefits, applying for community benefits, arranging outpatient therapies, and acquiring equipment to use at home.
Recovery support
Ongoing support is an essential part of your ongoing recovery. A variety of support groups are available when you are ready to go home, including but not limited to:
- Amputee
- Brain tumor
- Burn
- Neurologic
- Stroke
Outpatient rehabilitation
We work collaboratively with facilities both in and outside of our UCHealth network. Our physicians and staff have direct electronic access to the medical records of patients who have received care within the UCHealth network. This helps ensure a smooth transition from one level of care to the next.
Our physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians direct rehabilitation care. Primary or specialty physicians are welcome to treat their patients in the Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility as a consultant. We are committed to coordinating care with each patient’s personal physician to ensure a smooth transition at discharge.
If you require ongoing rehabilitative services, you can transition your care to one of our many outpatient rehabilitation locations where therapists will continue to assist you on your road to recovery.
