From Hamilton Middle School Principal Norman Ballard, “On behalf of Hamilton Middle School, I would like to take the time to thank Encore Rehabilitation for all the services they provide our student athletes. It’s reassuring not only to the coaches but also to the parents that someone from ENCORE is always on call. We have been lucky enough to have Athletic Trainer Drew Battle at our disposal for many years here at Hamilton. He has gone above and beyond his job description to take care of our students. No matter the time of day or the circumstances, Drew is always on call! We appreciate that!”

How to Deal with Summer Heat

Heat Exhaustion or Heat Stroke infographic #EncoreRehab

Summer time in the South means lots of heat and humidity! Here are some tips for dealing with the summer heat!

  1. Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids. Do not wait until you are thirsty to start hydrating. A sports drink can help replace lost salt and minerals from sweating.
  2. Stay indoors as much as possible and limit exposure to the sun.
  3. NEVER leave children or pets alone in closed vehicles. NEVER.
  4. Wear loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing that covers as much skin as possible. Protect your face and head with a wide-brimmed hat.
  5. Avoid working outside during the hottest part of the day. Take frequent breaks.
  6. Pay attention to what you eat and drink. Eat less of salty foods and eat more fruits and vegetables. Also smaller, more frequent meals will help.
  7. Seek indoor, air-conditioned activities. If you do not have air conditioning, visit public places with air conditioning like the mall, the library, or restaurants.
  8. Stay tuned to the local forecast on the radio, television, or internet.
  9. Be sure to check on family and friends who do not have air conditioning and may live alone.
  10. Learn the signs of heat stroke and heat exhaustion. Heat-related deaths and illnesses are preventable, but it’s important to identify the warning signs and to react swiftly and appropriately when they arise.

We wish everyone a fun and safe summer!

Ms. Driver is feeling safe with Encore Rehabilitation-Gordo!

Linda Driver Photo Gordo Revised

Ms. Driver was concerned about going anywhere during the pandemic. She also wasn’t sure about going out to therapy. After seeing how Encore Rehabilitation clinics were social distancing, cleaning equipment between patients, allowing fewer numbers of patients in the clinic at one time, and taking other precautions, she felt much better about therapy. Ms. Driver was able to come to Encore and receive safe, successful rehab! Now she is back to doing the things she loves!

Thanks, Ms. Driver for choosing Encore! We are proud to be provide great care for our patients!

Jamyal Jones – Working out again thanks to Encore Rehabilitation-Luverne

Jamyal Jones is Patient of the the Month for #EncoreRehab Luverne

“I recently tore my rotator cuff in the gym working out. During my time at Physical Therapy, I’ve been looking forward to getting back to working out. The wonderful staff at Encore Rehabilitation-Luverne has done a great job helping me get back to myself with my strength and muscle endurance. I’m so glad I chose Encore to help me with this process because they have been nothing short of excellent! The one-on-one Physical Therapy I received was exceptional and was worth every ounce of pain I endured through this process. I chose Encore because the clinic was close by. I knew it would be family-oriented and that makes the experience and rehab a lot more comfortable and easier. Thanks greatly to the entire staff for being courteous and very professional.“~ Jamyal Jones, patient

Thank you, Jamyal, for choosing Encore to be your rehab partner! We are proud to select you as our Patient of the Month. You have done a great job with your rehab! Enjoy the gym! 

We LOVE helping people get back to doing the things they enjoy! If rehab is in your future, call Encore!
