Cuero Regional Hospital's Rehabilitation Department is staffed with licensed physical therapists, therapy assistants, occupational therapists and speech therapists who provide a continuum of care for inpatient, outpatient rehabilitation and home health. Our staff works closely with physicians to develop a program tailored to the individual needs of each patient. We offer a wide range of therapeutic services, including individualized exercise programs and multiple variations of modality treatments. We also specialize in many muscular-skeletal disorders, including orthopedic, neurological and sports medicine injuries.
