Spaulding Outpatient Rehabilitation of Kent Hospital’s Joint Health program addresses an individual’s joint pain with a specifically designed physical therapy plan to enhance joint health, while decreasing pain and maximizing functional abilities. Each patient receives a comprehensive evaluation of their condition and an individualized plan of care from a physical therapist.
The therapist will work with the referring physician and the orthopedic department to assist with avoiding or delaying any unnecessary procedures. Therapists provide education and instruction on therapeutic exercise programs along with handouts, pictures, and videos.
Research has shown therapy to be a successful first step in reducing sudden or chronic joint pain. With Spaulding, participants receive exceptional care and have the ability to be easily connected with a vast network of specialists and experts from across the region.

We utilize an online program called Medbridge® to help create custom home exercise programs and provide patient education materials. These exercises and educational handouts are specific to each individual patient, not pre-made or generalized in nature. Medbridge ® allows you to access pictures and videos of each exercise on your computer, laptop, tablet, phone, or through the MedbridgeGO ® app.
Your therapist can easily progress those exercises and adjust your program based on your response to care. These exercises can be translated into other languages also, such as Spanish. Our therapists can also see if you are accessing and performing your exercises as prescribed for maximal benefits.
