We offer the following inpatient rehabilitation programs:
Amputee
Life after amputation is filled with the challenge of adapting
and returning to a normal life. The goal of MidAmerica's amputee program
is to return the patient to the highest level of independence and functional
lifestyle at home, in the community and in the workplace.
Arthritis
For many people the pain of osteoarthritis can become so severe
that it disrupts normal living. Caring for yourself becomes difficult, and
handling family or work responsibilities may become impossible. MidAmerica's
arthritis rehabilitation program helps an individual reduce and manage their
pain while increasing their independence.
Aquatic Therapy
Aquatic therapy is often prescribed by physicians for clients
who are suffering from a variety of disorders. The aquatic environment not
only improves patient confidence and aids in pain management, but also helps
patients regain function and independence and facilitates the return to
work and play.
Brain
Injury
Early rehabilitation is critical to help patients achieve their
fullest potential after brain injury. MidAmerica has established a rehabilitation
program that helps patients achieve and maximize functional and cognitive
recovery following a brain injury. The program enables patients to become
more self-sufficient and understand how to avoid future health problems.

Balance and Vestibular
Through a multidisciplinary team approach, this MidAmerica program
evaluates patients with persistent dizziness or disequilibrium. This multidisciplinary
team evaluation allows for a timely and more accurate diagnosis of the condition,
thus enabling more appropriate intervention.
Cardiac Care
Rebuilding your life after a traumatic heart attack or bypass
surgery can be a challenge. At MidAmerica, we understand that restored strength
and hope are vital parts of recovery. Our cardiac care program is designed
to reduce the risk of future heart problems by helping patients understand
heart disease and develop a healthy lifestyle.
Joint Replacement
Rehabilitation following an orthopedic surgery is a very challenging
and demanding experience. The rehabilitation program for joint replacement
surgery was established to assist our patients in setting and achieving
their goals to maximize functional recovery and independence.
Lymphedema
MidAmerica's Lymphedema Program focuses on alleviating the swelling
that occurs in legs, arms, face, neck, abdomen or chest when the lymphatic
system malfunctions. Our program based on a patient's needs and goals, results
in reduced swelling and improved quality of life. The program also teaches
both the patient and family to manage the condition and provides follow-up
care and referral to additional resources as necessary.
Multiple Sclerosis
The Multiple Sclerosis Program is a multidisciplinary treatment
approach designed to maximize an individual's independence. A specialized
team of therapists is committed to improving the quality of life for those
with multiple sclerosis and their families. The program addresses the individual's
physical, emotional and training needs to result in positive outcomes in
all stages of the disease. Sample patient

Neurorehabilitation
MidAmerica's Neurological Disorders Program meets the needs of
patients with chronic progressive conditions such as Parkinson's disease,
or acute remitting diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis. By following a rehabilitation
plan designed to achieve functional gains, patients become more functionally
independent and learn how to reduce the risk of future medical problems.
Orthopedics
Orthopedic rehabilitation treats musculoskeletal injuries and
conditions. MidAmerica's pathway to recovery for patients with orthopedic
conditions helps them achieve and maintain functional gains in a timely,
cost-effective manner. The program is individualized according to a patient's
needs, functional goals and extent of injury.
Parkinson's Disease
MidAmerica coordinates a specialized program that meets the needs
of patients with chronic progressive conditions such as Parkinson's disease.
By following a rehabilitation regimen to achieve functional gains, patients
become more functionally independent and learn how to reduce the risk of
future medical problems.
Pain Management
Pain is how nature warns you that something is wrong. For many
people, pain can become so severe that it disrupts normal living. Work becomes
impossible, sleep difficult and relationships strained. MidAmerica has established
a method to identify the source of pain and the steps necessary to reduce
or eliminate pain in a timely, cost-effective manner. Through our Pain Management
Program, patients become more self-sufficient, decrease or eliminate the
need for pain medication, and learn how to avoid future health problems.
Pulmonary Disease
Chronic pulmonary disorders can be disabling. MidAmerica's pulmonary
rehabilitation program is designed to minimize the progression of chronic
disease and maximize independence, reduce shortness of breath, and improve
endurance and quality of life. Through an individualized treatment plan,
patients learn how to better manage their condition, and avoid future health
problems.
Spasticity Mangement
For patients who have suffered from a stroke, multiple sclerosis,
cerebral palsy, brain injury or a spinal cord injury, spasticity can be
disabling. But it doesn't have to be. Through MidAmerica's comprehensive,
outcome-focused rehabilitation program, patients can achieve maximum functional
independence.
Spinal
Cord Injury
Spinal cord rehabilitation is an intricate and complicated process
that requires a team of experts to enhance a patient's abilities on physical,
cognitive and emotional levels. Based on a patient's limitations, our interdisciplinary
team establishes an individualized treatment plan. Each plan of care incorporates
specific methods that encourage the patient to develop pragmatic problem-solving
approaches appropriate for his or her rehabilitation and continuing care.

After many years of helping individuals recover from stroke,
MidAmerica has established a stroke rehabilitation program to help patients
achieve functional gains in a timely, cost-effective manner. This pathway
to recovery allows patients to become more functionally independent and

future strokes or other complications. Sample patient
