  Support Services
Hillcrest employs two full-time Activities coordinators to address the emotional, social, spiritual and recreational needs of our residents. These trained professionals also coordinate volunteers who work throughout the year to enrich the lives of our residents and their families.

Rehabilitation
Hillcrest provides comprehensive short-term rehabilitation on-site delivered by an experienced team of Physical, Occupational and Speech therapists. Our goal for all our rehabilitation patients is clear - to restore each one to optimum levels of form, function, and quality of life - and return them to their homes or alternate levels of care as quickly and safely as possible. These services promote the restoration and the ability to maintain capabilities, and are fully staffed by Hillcrest employees. The goal of employing these therapists rather than utilizing a contract rehab service is to promote continuity throughout rehabilitation - you and your therapist are a team, building on the success gained from one session to the next.

Social Work
Hillcrest has two full-time social workers on staff to assist our residents and their families with a variety of issues. This includes adjusting to a new environment, grief counseling, coping with psychosocial issues, help with transitioning one level of care to the next, and discharge planning.
