Rehab to Home
While Natchitoches Community Care Center still provides traditional long-term care, many individuals who turn to us for care, complete the rehabilitation – physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy – that they need to gain strength and endurance to return home successfully. Our fully equipped rehabilitation gym is staffed by physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech therapists. While many residents are able to return home, our goal is to get each individual functioning at their highest level and capability.
