PPEC Physical Therapy in Lehigh Acres, FL

PPEC services are covered by Medicaid, as well as some private insurance plans. Families who do not have insurance coverage may be eligible for financial assistance or other forms of support. We are more than happy to assist families, as we have in the past, in finding coverage for their child.

Physical therapy through PPEC services offers a more comprehensive and targeted approach to care that is designed to address a child’s unique needs and promote optimal physical function. Your child has limited interactions, as well as limited services with at home nursing care. At PPEC, they can benefit from multiple therapies in one location, as well as social interaction with peers. Our interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals work together to provide coordinated care that integrates specialized therapies and other services, such as nursing care, education, and recreation.

At Children’s Rehab PPEC, we specialize in caring for children with complex medical needs, including those with developmental delays or disabilities. Our team of healthcare professionals are trained to handle many combinations of medical needs. We work together to provide personalized care plans that address each child’s unique needs, including specialized therapies, nursing care, and education services.

Medicaid eligibility is complex and varies from state to state, taking into account factors like family size and specific medical needs. We would recommend reaching out to your local Medicaid office or a social worker for the most current and accurate information regarding income limits when qualifying for Medicaid.

Physical therapy at our center works on mobility and physical function, balance and coordination, strength and endurance, range of motion and flexibility, and gross and fine motor skills, along with posture and body alignment.

Our physical therapists develop individualized treatment plans that address each child’s unique needs, and they work with our nurses, teachers, and other therapists so physical therapy fits into the rest of the day.

Physical therapy takes place at our Lehigh Acres center during the PPEC day, with our own therapists rather than an outside agency, so your child stays under our nursing team’s care while in therapy.

Physical therapy is included in the plan of care your child’s physician approves, and sessions take place on the days your child attends the center. Your child’s therapist reviews progress with you and adjusts the plan as your child grows.

Your child’s therapist records goals and progress and shares updates with you and your child’s physician. Our case management services keep daily communication between parents and staff, and an activities coordinator sends texts, photos, and videos each week.
