Patricia
Patient at Hammonton CenterI had numerous respiratory problems and I had a very hard time breathing. I needed a tracheostomy tube, and I was totally dependent on others to do anything. At Hammonton Center, I’ve worked with the physical, speech, and occupational therapists. I don’t need the tube anymore and I can talk and swallow without any trouble. Thanks to the physical and occupational therapists, I can do things on my own again. Hammonton Center has given me a new lease on life!

Patient at Hammonton Center"My doctor said I had benign positional vertigo. What that means is, I was dizzy. Really dizzy. My head was spinning. I couldn’t stand up without feeling weak and lightheaded. I had blurred vision and nausea. It was an awful experience. I had been to Hammonton Center before for rehab, and the doctors, nurses and therapists—everyone there—has always come through for me, and this time was no different. They took care of me when I couldn’t take care of myself. I’m stronger now than I’ve been in a long time. I’ve got my balance back and I don’t have to worry about falling. I would recommend Hammonton Center to any of my friends or family who need rehab. I’m going home soon, but I’ll miss everyone here!"
