Inpatient & Outpatient Guillain-Barre Rehab

Guillain-Barre Rehab

For those who need more intensive care, inpatient Guillain-Barre syndrome rehab may be the best option. This form of rehabilitation focuses on working with patients over a shorter period to maximize their recovery.

The goal is to help you return home being as independent and productive as possible.

Some patients may benefit from outpatient rehab. Outpatient rehabilitation allows patients to come to our hospital for a few hours of treatment during the day and return home each night. 
Comprehensive outpatient therapy is also available to patients who want to maintain or enhance their recovery after inpatient rehab.
