My Interests

What separates Universal from conventional outpatient rehabilitation programs? At Universal, we instill a greater sense of independence and self worth and say the possibilities are wide open. The typical rehabilitation program will focus on making clients live with their disability and know their limitations. At Universal, our comprehensive, aggressive regime spans five days a week. No more will your disability be labeled and your course of treatment pre-determined.As a facility owned and operated by people with disabilities, we take great pride in utilizing a "non-conventional" approach to helping you understand and overcome your disability. "We think outside the box". Universal recognizes and appreciates what you want - and rehabilitation as it's commonly regarded, just isn't enough!
