Akron General's multidisciplinary approach to rehabilitation has made Outpatient Rehabilitation at Akron General Medical Center one of the best programs in the area. We focus on the fact that many patients require more than one therapy at a time. Stroke victims often require physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. Multiple trauma victims often require both physical and occupational therapy services. Audiology, Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy often work together to treat patients with balance deficits, dizziness and vestibular problems.

Speech pathology is an integral aspect of rehabilitation and is used as therapy for numerous conditions. Akron General's Speech Language Pathology Department treats common speech and language disorders, as well as common medical conditions that cause speech, language or swallowing disorders.
