Family involvement is encouraged. Close communication is maintained with the referring physician and other members of the healthcare team throughout the rehabilitation program.

Under the directions of your referring physician and the rehabilitation therapy team your journey to wellness begins the moment you arrive. You will meet your therapists and establish tour goals and a plan for restoration.

The Reutlinger Community is in partnership with Live Well at Home, offering non-medical home care services to older adults living at our community or to persons living in Contra Costa County. If you need home care support, please contact Live Well at Home or call 925-626-4340.
