Senior Rehabilitation
Feel and Function at Your Best
Peter Becker Community’s senior Rehabilitation Center understands that just because aging is normal doesn’t mean one should endure pain and loss of function. The emphasis of our short-term rehabilitation program is to restore mobility and help regain a high level of function and independence so our guests can return to their homes as quickly as possible. We are dedicated to improving, maintaining or restoring physical strength, cognition and mobility through physical, occupational, and speech therapies after an illness or injury.

Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Services
Our senior Rehabilitation for Philadelphia and eastern PA older adults focuses on matching the region’s top physical, occupational, and speech therapists with short-term residents who are able to rehabilitate to the point of enjoying independent living once again.
- What Is Physical Therapy? – Addresses flexibility, strength, endurance, coordination and balance needed for activities, such as walking. This therapy involves exercise, pain management, education, ultrasound, and balance strategies.
- What is Occupational Therapy? – Designed to help individuals achieve a level of independence in performing daily household and personal care tasks. Therapists may recommend adaptive equipment to change the environment to fit an individual’s needs.
- What is Speech Therapy? – Our speech-language pathologist helps patients learn strategies for safe swallowing and effective communication.
How Long Is Short-Term Senior Rehab?
The length of a short-term Rehabilitation stay at Peter Becker Community varies based on each individual’s needs and recovery goals. While some guests stay just a few days, others may require several weeks of therapy to regain strength, mobility and confidence before returning home. Our team works closely with each person, their family and health care providers to create a personalized plan – and we’re committed to supporting every step of the journey to a safe, successful recovery.
