“The exceptional knowledge and skills of this Touchpoints rehab team is light years better that I could have ever expected. I am now ready for Outpatient Physical Therapy. I chose Touchpoints Rehab Outpatient services because  I will be able to continue my care with the same therapists! How great is that. With Touchpoints at Home and Touchpoints Rehab you get complete success. I highly recommend Touchpoints Rehab and Touchpoints at Home at every level on care.”

Staff from Touchpoints at Manchester participated in the Manchester Senior Center Health Fair. Touchpoints’ Kim Wanegar-Nation, a Physical Therapist, provided information about leading edge technologies to live better with COPD and sleep apnea. Kim provided information about our leading edge Pulmonary Rehabilitation program which offers the services and supports of consulting Pulmonologists, a Care Transitions Respiratory Therapist and high-tech rehabilitation and therapy services. 

“My family have been fans of Touchpoints at Manchester for many years, so when I needed rehab after my open heart surgery Touchpoints was my only choice. I experienced many complications but the amazing nurses and therapists were on top of things every step of the way…I am so surprised that I am going home so soon after all I have been through. My family and I feel confident that I am ready, and we all have the education and services I need to continue my recovery.”

Touchpoints at Manchester’s Joanie Gallichant has been an LPN at the care center for 38 years and her passion lies in caring for the residents of the long term care unit. She not only provides excellent care she also is always finding ways to bring joy to the residents and so for the last five years she has made a visit to the center as Mrs. Claus.

“The rehab team is great! They helped me to be up and independent so quickly, I made it home in one week. At 85 years old, many people did not think that was possible! I feel ready and confident to go home but more importantly my family feels ready. I will continue to recover by coming back to Touchpoints Rehab Outpatient Center. Touchpoints at Manchester will always be my first and only choice.”
