Services Locations The Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science provides primarily outpatient physical therapy services at two faculty practice sites. One location is at 2200 Post St (corner Scott), Room C 232 and the other location is 1701 Divisadero, Suite 240, at the Mt Zion campus of UCSF Medical Center. A third outpatient location is managed with the Medical Center at 500 Parnassus (Millberry Union, Rm 09) where outpatient pediatric rehabilitation is provided. At this location, we also offer pool therapy and occupational and speech therapy for developmental and feeding problems in the pediatric population. We also provide outpatient occupational therapy consultations, swallow assessments, and speech and language evaluations. InPatient Services are also available. UCSF Faculty Practice Our expert practitioners are either Associate or Assistant Clinical Professors at UCSF. They provide patient care services based on scientific evidence, modeling clinical education and inquiry for the future. We practice at sites co-located with the UCSF graduate and doctoral educational programs in physical therapy. Our practice strives to be a national model of an academic physical therapy practice that integrates science with clinical practice and clinical education. Referrals Patients receiving rehabilitation services can be of any age across the continuum, from neonate to the elderly. If a patient accesses our practice through a referral from another provider, that practitioner has already conducted an examination of the patient that led to the determination that therapy was appropriate. Scope of Services In each therapy discipline, we provide consultation, evaluation, intervention and patient/family education to resolve identified impairments and to maximize patients' physical function. The range of services provided includes:
If the initial evaluation findings are consistent with the pre-existing or referring diagnosis, treatment goals are established and a treatment plan is designed and initiated with the consent of the patient. If not, the therapist will consult the referring physician prior to initiating therapy.
Achievement of goals is the primary method utilized by therapists to assess effectiveness of therapeutic intervention.
