Premiere Rehab and Accelerated Care Plus (ACP)

By partnering with ACP (Accelerated Care Plus), Premiere Rehab specializes in offering rehabilitation programs that optimize patient outcomes. Premiere Rehab has programs available to address a variety of neurological and musculoskeletal conditions.

Although electrical stimulation and ultrasound have been used successfully for many years to treat orthopedic and athletic injuries, Premiere's use of ACP's unique programs and new technology gives these modalities broader therapeutic applications.

Electrical stimulation can be used for pain management, increased blood flow, spasticity management and muscle re-education. Ultrasound treatments generate deep heating, facilitate the relaxation of contractures and accelerate the healing of soft tissue.

Shortwave diathermy uses radio waves to increase the extensibility of Collagen Tissue, reduce inflammation and increase local blood flow. Many patients who have not been responsive to standard therapies are improving with the use of ACP modalities and treatment methods. Therapists have seen patients recover more quickly than they might have with conventional therapies alone. As a result, patients enjoy increased independence and improved quality-of-life.

Through the use of ACP, Premiere Rehab is able to treat many persistent healthcare problems, including:

• Acute and Chronic Wounds
• Edema (Swelling)
• Chronic Pain
• Contractures (Loss of Joint Motion)
• Urinary Incontinence
• Muscle Re-education
• Falls
• Neurological and Stroke motor dysfunction
• Dysphagia (Difficulty Swallowing)
• Post Surgical Recovery
