Life Care Center of Citrus County

Rehabilitation is available on an inpatient or outpatient basis and includes physical, occupational, and speech therapy. An in-house team of therapists and nurses evaluates each patient’s needs and develops an individualized plan. Physical therapy addresses mobility and other physical needs through individual evaluations and tailored interventions, including following acute or chronic illness. Occupational therapy focuses on daily activities, motor skills, hand and upper-extremity function, and bladder and bowel control related to incontinence. Speech and language therapy works on speaking, problem solving, reading, writing, and verbal expression, as well as swallowing problems. The programs are described as aiming to help patients work toward their functional potential and abilities associated with independent living.

Room choices include private and semiprivate accommodations, both with private bathrooms. Dining amenities include a fine dining program and access to a certified dietitian. An in-house ice cream parlor, beauty salon, and barber shop are also listed. Housekeeping and laundry services are provided, while landscaped grounds, courtyards, and a library offer shared spaces.
