Indian River County
In-Home Physical Therapy in Indian River County, FL
Indian River County is compact but strung out along the coast, and its traffic funnels onto four roads: I-95, US-1, SR 60, and SR A1A. Crash injuries here follow those corridors, and the patients who call us are usually a day or two out from an emergency visit with a rehabilitation order they cannot act on.
Our therapists treat in the home throughout the county — Vero Beach, Sebastian, Wabasso, Winter Beach, Orchid, and Fellsmere. Each episode of care starts with a full evaluation in the patient's own space and continues there through discharge, which keeps attendance high in a county with a large retired population and limited transit. Crash patients across the county receive the same auto accident physical therapy we provide statewide.
