Our Philosophy
At the forefront of our philosophy is the basic notion that our purpose for everything is simply… to care. Willow Springs Care Center operates from a resident-centered way of thinking where all skilled, clinical and recreational interactions are completed in a manner that puts the resident’s physical and emotional needs first.
The team we have in place supports this approach though very compassionate, thorough and efficient care protocols. It is a philosophy that encourages residents to engage in the development of their individual care plans, affording caregivers the flexibility to think outside the box.
Our primary goal with rehabilitation is to help our patients return to the activities in which they are accustomed to participating, at or near their previous level of participation. As such, the OT will lead the appropriate treatment plans based on each patient's unique set of needs.
