Patient Stories
Prairie Health Group provides therapy to seniors for a very specific reason: to help them stay independent, safe, and maintain their quality of life as they age. Here are some of our client success stories.
John
When John began experiencing memory loss related to dementia, everyday tasks that once felt simple started to become more challenging. John and his wife, Mary, had lived in their home for over 40 years, and remaining there together was very important to both of them. As John’s condition progressed, Mary began to notice changes in his balance, his ability to complete daily routines, and occasional difficulty finding the right words. After speaking with their physician, John was referred to Prairie Health Group for therapy services provided right in their home.
Susan
Susan has always been independent and active. She lives by herself in her own home and enjoys activities like pickleball games with friends and playing with her grandchildren. She understands the value of proactive therapy for helping her maintain muscle strength, coordination and balance so she can reduce fall risks and continue living the vibrant lifestyle she loves. Prairie Health Group has helped her reduce fall risks by building strength, coordination and balance, maintain an active and healthy lifestyle and live independently in her own home for as long as possible. She is extremely grateful to her PT and OT who are helping her achieve her goals.
