Spinal Cord Injury Program
Available to both inpatients and outpatients, Kentfield's spinal cord injury program provides specialized care to individuals with a wide range of diagnoses.

Treatment
Through aggressive integrated therapies and modalities, patients with recent or long-standing problems in spinal cord function maximize their potential for mobility and self-care. Treatment by our multidisciplinary team includes:

• interdisciplinary rehabilitation therapy
• comprehensive urological, pulmonary, pain management and wound care consultations
• pharmacological and dietary modifications
• psychology/neuropsychology for patient and family adjustment
• sexual counseling
• equipment identified for functional independence
• community resources recommended at discharge

Education
At Kentfield, we believe that education is an important part of the treatment process. Our program focuses on patient and family education regarding:

• spinal cord physiology
• bowel and bladder care
• skin care
• pulmonary hygiene
• psychosocial adjustment

Local and national resources are also available.
