Program & Goals<\/h2>\n

The department of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation offers comprehensive care to individuals recovering from a stroke<\/a> with the goal of maximizing function and quality of life.<\/p>\n

Integrated Care Model<\/h2>\n

Our physiatrists develop and oversee an individualized care plan for each patient which is implemented by our team of rehabilitation professionals. Our services are available to patients who have suffered a stroke during acute hospitalization at UNC Hospitals, at the UNC Health Care Rehabilitation Center<\/a> or our sub-acute rehabilitation<\/a> at UNC-Rex.<\/p>\n

We continue rehabilitation care, education, research and advocacy in the UNC PM&R Outpatient Clinic<\/a> and through our community outreach programs.<\/p>\n

Our faculty members also provide spasticity management<\/span><\/a>, nerve conduction studies<\/a>, electromyography studies (EMGs)<\/a>, as well as neuropsychological and psychological evaluation and treatment.<\/p>\n

PM&R Faculty Sub-specializing in Stroke Rehabilitation<\/h2>\n
