Welcome to Encore Communities Rehabilitation Center at Northwoods Lodge.  Our highly-credentialed staff provides comprehensive physical, occupational and speech therapies to residents of Encore's retirement and assisted living communities and, on an outpatient basis, to those living in the greater Kitsap, Mason and Jefferson county areas.

Using intensive therapy programs, we assist our patients to achieve their maximum, functional ability as soon as it is safely possible.  Our goal is to help patients return to their own environment and enjoy their independence.  The intensity of the individual rehabilitation programs are based on specific diagnosis, endurance, ability, and physician's prescription. 

If you have any questions, please contact the Director of Rehabilitation Services at Northwoods Lodge at 360-337-7422.
