Outpatient Therapy
A world-class heated therapeutic pool is the jewel in the crown for the Weinberg Therapy Building, which is located right on the main campus of St. Joseph’s Center. A fully equipped land treatment room; a pediatric therapy gym; speech-language therapy, music therapy and recreation therapy facilities; along with a sensory stimulating Snoezellen room complete the venue.
Initiated to coincide with the opening of the Weinberg Therapy Building in 1997, St. Joseph’s Outpatient Therapy Service has caught the attention of physicians and patients throughout the region. A unique blend of aquatic and land-based therapies is provided under one roof. Compassionate care provided by professional staff has earned the program rave reviews.
