Success Story: Ronald

When there’s a will, there’s a way…

When Ronald Burdick arrived at The Gardens at Scranton he had been experiencing decreased levels of endurance and balance as well as an inability to complete activities of daily living (ADL), decreased ambulation, difficulty negotiating steps, and an unfortunate history of falls.

Ronald’s goal was to return home to his wife with restored functional ability and improved confidence.

During his rehab stay, Ronald worked with his therapists using restorative, compensatory, and adaptive techniques to improve his level of function in the above areas. In addition, in preparation of his return home, our skilled therapy team provided Ronald with education and training on fall management and car transfers.

Working together with our dedicated staff, Ronald successfully completed his rehab program and returned home his beloved wife.
