Skilled Rehabilitation Program

The Pointe Coupee General Hospital Skilled Rehabilitation Program is a special program offering skilled nursing and/or therapy care to patients who need continued care beyond an acute hospital stay. The skilled rehabilitation programs allows extra time to recover from an illness, injury, or surgery before returning home, or extra time to recover from a stroke or accident, or extra time to receive continued specialized wound care or IV medications.

Examples of why a patient may need skilled are include:

  • Recovery from a stroke or accident

  • Post-operative rehabilitation

  • Extended therapy after joint replacement surgery

  • Wounds requiring special care

  • Intravenous therapy

 
 
 

Digital Mammography

 

Our primary goal is to always deliver high-quality care to our patients, which is why we use advanced, digital 3D mammography technology. With digital 3D mammography, the radiologist reviews electronic images of the breast using special high-resolution monitors.

Mammograms play a central part in the early detection of breast cancer because they can detect changes in the breast that are too small or subtle to be felt during a self-breast exam.
