Caregivers
At Harmony in Motion, we know caregivers are an integral part of care and recovery. When a loved one experiences a serious illness, injury or life-changing diagnoses, it’s natural and important for you to want to be part of their healing and support process. Caregivers provide emotional strength, physical assistance, and day-to-day support that can make a truly meaningful difference in recovery. Whether you are a spouse, parent, child or close friend, your role as their caregiver is valued, respected and supported in our therapy programs.
Caregiver Support
As experienced therapists we believe in including caregivers in the therapy process whenever possible. You often share in the challenges faced by your loved ones. You may feel their frustration, pain or worry and you may also wonder how you can truly help. That’s why we actively include caregivers in the treatment plan if it is at all possible- because when patients and caregivers work together, recovery outcomes are stronger.

Caregiver Education and Resources
Our goal is to educate patients and caregivers about treatment expectations related to the specific illness or injury and recommend modifications that can be made at home or work to support progress.
