Pediatric Acute Care Physical Therapy

Pediatric Acute Care Physical Therapy focuses on the rehabilitation of infants, children, and adolescents who are experiencing acute medical issues, such as injuries, surgeries, or severe illness. Physical therapists in this setting work closely with young patients to restore mobility, improve strength, and enhance overall function. They also help manage pain and support recovery to ensure children can return to their daily activities, such as playing and attending school. This specialized care is tailored to the unique needs of children, considering their developmental stages and medical conditions.
