Our Approach


We understand the challenges one faces when choosing a rehabilitation or long-term care facility for a loved one. Lockport belongs to a family of facilities dedicated to providing the highest level of care possible for both our short-term friends, and long-term family. We implement a unique method to providing care, one that focuses on nurturing the overall mental and physical wellness of our residents, not just treating medical issues. Our state-of-the-art facilities combine cutting edge technology with a warm, friendly atmosphere. Aside from our top notch, round-the-clock medical care, guests can look forward to community outings, fun activities, luxurious rooms, and hands-on, delicate care.

For our long-term and short-term residents, we offer an individualized plan of care and services tailored to meet specialized needs. For our short-term rehabilitation patients, we focus on strengthening our patients so that they can return home as soon as possible. Family education, training, and care conferences are also available to address longer-term goals and discharge planning. In order to ensure a smooth transition after discharge, home evaluations are completed as needed based on residents' needs.

For our long-term patients, we do our utmost to ensure that our patients receive the best possible care. Our experienced staff maintains constant communication with our patient's medical team as well as their family members. At Lockport, you can rest easy knowing that your family member will receive warm, compassionate care, making his or her stay with us both comfortable and enjoyable.

How long will my Inpatient Rehabilitation stay be?

Each Individual Rehabilitation stay is unique, and its length is determined through an Interdisciplinary Team comprised of your Therapist, Nurse Manager, Social Worker and any other individual involved in your plan of care. Discharge plan meetings are scheduled for you and your family to ask questions, discuss concerns, and review your progress. In determining and planning your length of stay, we take into account having a safe and successful discharge, so that your best needs are met upon leaving our facility.

How often will I have therapy during my Inpatient Rehabilitation stay?

Therapy occurs 6 days per week, Monday through Saturday. Typically, a Physical Therapy and an Occupational Therapy session are scheduled each day. The specific length of these sessions depends on insurance approval and level of participation, and physician orders.

Do you offer Outpatient Rehabilitation?

Do I need to bring in my own medications from home?

No. All prescription drugs, treatments, and over-the-counter medications will be provided by the facility. If your loved one asks you to bring in medication, please speak to a nurse, as this may indicate ineffective medication.

What are your visiting hours?

Our facility has open visiting hours. The best time to visit residents in rehab is late afternoon, or right after dinner. Residents are usually in therapy a couple of times a day, so be sure to plan your visits accordingly. Our long-term residents generally receive visitors between 8am and 8pm.
