Therapies Offered

Quality therapies are a vital component of the services necessary for quality care. ECTC employs as well as consults with certified/registered specialists. Their skills are utilized to help with the development of Individual Program Plans and meeting the residents' identified needs. Licensed Therapists (i.e., Speech Pathologist, Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapist) evaluate our residents and help to determine their capabilities in motor coordination, self-help, socialization, oral motor skills, and language/communication skills.

ECTC also contracts with a psychiatrist to help reduce maladaptive behaviors, thus assisting with integration into the community. We have weekly visits from both a masseuse and a healing touch therapist, helping different residents with relaxation, reduction of excess muscle tone and enhancing overall health. If other specialists are determined by the team to be beneficial in the resident's growth and development - such as Psychologists, Rehabilitation and Wheelchair Specialists or Certified Prosthetic and Orthotic Specialists - these services are also provided.
