Therapy that works for kids.
Comprehensive, Coordinated Care – All in One Day
At Mary Free Bed Kids, we understand that children recovering from illness, injury, or surgery often need multiple therapies to regain strength, independence and confidence.
Our Day Rehabilitation Program provides a convenient, coordinated approach—offering several therapy sessions on the same day. This schedule allows your child to receive the intensive, multidisciplinary care they need while minimizing disruptions to your family’s routine.
Our goal is to make rehabilitation as efficient, effective and fun as possible—because healing should always come with a smile.
How the Program Works
Each child’s rehabilitation plan begins with a comprehensive assessment of their strengths, abilities and goals. Together, you and your child play an active role in setting treatment objectives and designing a plan that fits their unique needs.
Our program typically includes:
- Consistent therapy: Your child will participate in two to three hours of therapy per day, three to five days a week.
- Comprehensive care teams: Your child will work with a combination of physical, occupational and speech-language therapists. recreational therapists
- Family collaboration: Parents and caregivers are encouraged to observe, participate and learn strategies to support continued progress at home.
We use a play-based, child-centered approach so therapy feels less like work—and more like fun.
What Makes Our Program Unique
- Convenient coordination: Multiple therapy disciplines are provided back-to-back in one location.
- Consistency and trust: Your child works with the same therapy team throughout their program for comfort, familiarity and progress tracking.
- Expert teamwork: Your child’s therapists meet weekly in a team conference to review goals, share updates, and adjust treatment as needed.
- Customized environment: All sessions take place in our kid-friendly, safe, and secure pediatric therapy spaces designed for fun, motivation and success.
- Smooth transitions: We help families prepare for each stage of recovery, including a gradual shift from intensive day rehabilitation to traditional outpatient therapy when appropriate.
At Mary Free Bed Kids, collaboration is at the heart of what we do. Every member of your child’s team—from therapists to physicians—communicates closely to ensure care is seamless, supportive and effective.
