When John Degiorgio fell and broke his hip in December, he needed

somewhere to stay that would help him get back on his feet – literally. That’s why he came to Sunset Home.

Over the course of ten days, John progressed quickly and was able to safely walk with a walker unsupervised and he was sent home.

For the last three months, John has been participating in our outpatient therapy department at The Outlook. He hasn’t completely recovered yet, but he is walking without an assistive device and is able to do many activities again. He credits LSM Director of Rehab, Eugene Galbreth, with his recovery.

“I trusted that Eugene knew what he was doing and I have progressed with remarkable speed,” John said. “His supportive attitude and approach has helped me do the needed work to be on the healing path.”

The Outlook at Sunset Home offers inpatient and outpatient services, featuring state-of-the-art

equipment like an antigravity treadmill that helps those who can’t bear full weight on their lower

extremities, three low-impact Nustep machines that work both the upper and lower body (ideal for those who may have joint pain with weight-bearing exercises) and a staircase with different size steps.
