Cancer Care
Cancer care at Gaylord includes both inpatient and outpatient care based on a team approach. Patients with an active cancer diagnosis receive care that builds strength and resilience for pre-treatment or in-between treatment, post-chemo and post-radiation. Patients are served by registered dietitians, therapists, social workers, and care managers, who share information across healthcare disciplines and provide care that nourishes the medical and psychological needs of the patient.
Concussion Program
Every concussion is unique. Our physiatrists, neuropsychologists, sports medicine physical therapists, vestibular/balance specialists, and occupational and speech therapists work together to evaluate and assess your injury and tailor an individualized care plan based on age, type, and extent of injury.
Guillain-Barré (GBS)
Guillain-Barré (GBS) is a rare autoimmune disorder that disrupts typical nerve function. The condition is caused when a person’s body mistakes its own cells as dangerous and begins to secrete autoantibodies that target nerves. This leads to side effects, often beginning with weakness and tingling in the legs. Depending on the severity of your impairment, an inpatient or outpatient program can be customized for you at Gaylord.
