For Providers: Refer a Patient
Burke can be your partner in managing the care of your patients, whether they are currently in an acute care hospital or living in the community. Rely on our rehabilitation knowledge and skills to treat patients post stroke, pre- and post-surgery, for neurological conditions, brain and spinal cord injuries, sports injuries, trauma, and general debility. A collaborative approach can lead to improved patient outcomes and experience, especially for individuals with complex medical and rehabilitation needs.
Consult the information below to find out how to refer according to your patient’s needs.
