New renovations include their 68 resident rooms, many of the common areas, storage space, offices and most recently their spacious rehabilitation room. The therapy equipment has been enhanced to include a cutting-edge electrotherapy, ultrasound therapy system and a therapeutic exercise system with motor-assist technology. The room has natural light flowing in with an enhanced work flow. Rehab Director, Erica Yidiaris stated how beneficial the new therapy room will be for the residents. “Eastgate Nursing and Rehabilitation provides physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. The new renovations have focused on areas that are most beneficial to the patients receiving short term rehabilitation and those that reside with us long-term.”
