Rachel Tritaik PT, CLT-LANA started In-Home Therapy of Sanibel in June of 2008, in order to provide physical therapy services exclusively to Sanibel and Captiva residents, by bringing outpatient physical therapy directly to the home.    For in-home therapy, patients do not need to be "homebound" or receive concurrent nursing care as is often required for traditional home-health therapy.  The Island Therapy Center will continue this home service for Sanibel residents unable to receive services in an outpatient clinic.  Both Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy will be available for home visits by appointment.  Additionally, our occupational therapist is skilled in home/equipment/wheelchair assessment and adaptation recommendations to improve daily activities and safety in the home.
