Health Services
For more than 30 years, Schaffer’s rehabilitation program has been helping cardiopulmonary, orthopedic and surgery patients return to their homes and families.
Our short-term program specializes in cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, post-surgery and stroke recovery, and fracture, fall and frail patient care.
Burke at Schaffer Extended Care Center
Through Schaffer’s partnership with Burke Rehabilitation Hospital, our physical, occupational, and speech therapists provide comprehensive rehabilitative care and individualized treatment programs for patients onsite.
We are focused on helping patients rapidly recover and regain their function and independence. Outpatient and inpatient physiotherapy staff members trained by Burke experts work to ensure the therapeutic care meets the high standards Burke is recognized for.
To speak with our Burke physical therapists, please call at
914-365-3820
Support Services
Most patients stay at Schaffer for at least a few weeks. So we cultivate an environment that meets the needs and interests of each patient. More than personalized care plans, this includes spaces where friends and family can visit comfortably, and therapeutic recreation that offers engaging activity for all levels of ability.
As part of Montefiore Health System, we believe an excellent way to help reduce your anxiety and provide an environment to promote the best outcome is through information and education. If you are in need of our services, please contact our Social Workers at 914-365-3807 for more information.
Interpretation Services
We provide, free of charge, language interpreter services, telecommunication and amplification devices, and sign language services to persons who are deaf and/or hearing impaired. Please ask your healthcare professional for assistance.
