Outpatient therapy can be beneficial to individuals who are recovering from an injury, surgery or illness. Outpatient therapy is a course of treatment that supports a patient’s recovery and rehabilitation and can be delivered in a clinic setting or at home. A physician will provide a plan of care for patients and will decide whether outpatient therapy is right for each individual patient. Some patients may benefit from receiving outpatient therapy in the home setting, while others may benefit more from a clinic environment. Finding the right environment for rehabilitation can shape the recovery for an individual. The patient’s physician will decide which environment is best for each individual patient’s needs.
