Mary Free Bed�s Adapted Sports Program is focused on getting patients of all ages back into active lifestyles. Recreational therapists evaluate the leisure skills and activities of each patient and try to find ways to keep them active in the areas they are passionate about. Rec therapists can provide education and leisure counseling to enable an individual to return to the same, or new, leisure and sports activities with or without adaptation.
For those interested in adapted sports, Mary Free Bed offers a variety of athletic programs for pediatric, adolescent, and adult patients. Individuals with mobility impairments can reap the same benefits of athletic activity and competition as the able-bodied enjoy. And, research proves that participating in sports and other recreation programs goes beyond the repair of the physical � athletic and leisure activities also have marked psychological and social advantages for people with disabilities.
