Committed to Children's Recovery
An illness, disease or injury can hold a child back from physical or daily activities. At Sanford Children’s Rehabilitation and Therapy, we work to get children back to their daily lives with a fast recovery. Let us help your child get back to being a kid.
You and your child will work with specialists to coordinate therapy that helps your child reach his or her highest potential. You will work with occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech therapists, primary care providers, pediatricians, physiatrists, psychologists and registered dietitians. You’ll have an entire care team working towards your child’s recovery.
