For homebound patients attempting to overcome physical
limitations that restrict their independence, The Thorne Group
provides in-home rehabilitation therapists to help improve
patients’ functional abilities. Patients are assessed by a
physical, occupational, and/or speech therapist. Once an
evaluation is made, treatment is administered on an individual
basis. This can include a wide range of therapies and supportive
devices that help make the patient as independent as possible.
