First and foremost, where you go for therapy services is YOUR CHOICE. ALWAYS. Most consumers don’t realize that a referral to therapy means they can see whoever they choose.

Let your doctor know you want to come to Generation Care for your care. We work with ALL of the local physicians as well as doctors from University of Michigan, Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, and anyone out of state.

Once a referral is made to Generation Care, either by you or your physician, we will immediately set your initial evaluation appointment at a convenient time for you. If transportation is an issue, we can help assemble resources for you.

• If your appointment is the next day, you can either complete the pre-registration materials by downloading them (see Pre-Register) and bringing them to your first appointment. Or come 10-15 minutes prior to your appointment to complete your rehabilitation history form.
• Bring any relevant information – surgical reports, physician prescriptions, etc – anything that you feel would be helpful to your therapist.
• If your referral is specific to aquatic therapy, you will likely have a land evaluation first, unless otherwise specified when making the appointment.
• Bring your Insurance cards.
• If you would like reports sent to additional people other than your physician, please bring names and addresses of case managers, etc.
• Wear comfortable clothing relevant to your condition. For example, if you have a knee injury, either wear clothes that will allow us to view and touch your leg or bring shorts.

Your first appointment will be approximately one hour, which will include an evaluation and the beginning to your treatment. We’ll be forming a plan for care that works for you and scheduling additional appointments as needed.

If your care includes home exercises or other instructions, you will receive a folder for ongoing use and gathering of materials, so you always know where everything is!
We are looking forward to see you soon!
