You shouldn’t have to choose between getting the care you need and dealing with the hassle of getting there. That’s the reality for a lot of people in Westhampton—especially if you’re recovering from surgery, managing chronic pain, or dealing with balance issues that make driving risky.
In-home physical therapy changes that. We show up with the equipment, the plan, and the expertise. You get one-on-one attention in your own space, where you’re most comfortable and where the work actually matters—your bathroom, your stairs, your kitchen.
The goal isn’t just less pain. It’s getting back to the things you do every day without second-guessing your body. That means better balance, stronger joints, more confidence moving around your home, and a clear plan that actually fits your life.
Medcare Therapy Services has been providing in-home care across Long Island for over a decade. That includes Westhampton and the surrounding areas, where we’ve built a reputation for showing up on time, treating people with respect, and delivering real results.
Our therapists are licensed professionals—many with doctorate-level training—who specialize in everything from post-surgical rehab to neurological recovery. We accept Medicare and work with most major insurance plans, so cost doesn’t have to be a barrier.
Long Island ranks among the highest in New York for fall-related injuries in adults over 65. That’s not a scare tactic—it’s why fall prevention and balance training are core parts of what we do here. You deserve care that understands the risks you’re facing and knows how to address them.
Your first session starts with an evaluation. We’ll ask about your pain, your mobility, your goals, and what’s been getting in the way. We’ll also assess your strength, balance, range of motion, and how you move through your home.
From there, we’ll build a treatment plan that’s specific to you. That might include therapeutic exercise, gait training, joint pain treatment, manual therapy, or balance work. If you’re recovering from a stroke or surgery, the plan adjusts to match where you are in your recovery.
Each session is one-on-one. We bring portable equipment—resistance bands, weights, balance boards, even bikes or steppers if needed. You’re not sharing time or attention with other patients. The focus is entirely on your progress, your pain levels, and your function.
Sessions typically happen two to three times a week, depending on your needs and your insurance coverage. Over time, you’ll notice improvements—less pain, better movement, more confidence. And when you’re ready, we’ll give you the tools to keep that progress going on your own.

Every treatment plan is different, but most include a mix of hands-on therapy, guided exercise, and education. You might work on strength training to support weak joints, balance exercises to reduce fall risk, or neuromuscular re-education if you’re recovering from a stroke or neurological condition.
If you’ve had a joint replacement, surgery, or injury, we’ll guide you through each phase of recovery—from reducing swelling and restoring range of motion to rebuilding strength and returning to normal activity. For chronic conditions like arthritis or back pain, the focus shifts to managing symptoms and maintaining function over the long term.
Occupational therapy is also available if you need help with daily tasks—getting dressed, cooking, bathing, or moving safely around your home. Both services are Medicare-covered for eligible patients, and most sessions are billed directly to your insurance.
In Westhampton and across Long Island, fall prevention is a major focus. With 88% of injury hospitalizations for seniors linked to falls, balance and proprioceptive training aren’t optional—they’re essential. We’ll assess your risk and build fall prevention strategies into your care from day one.
Yes. Medicare Part B covers in-home physical therapy when it’s medically necessary and prescribed by a doctor, typically for people recovering from surgery, an injury, or a stroke, or for those who have a condition making it unsafe to travel to a clinic. Medcare Therapy coordinates directly with your physician to make sure everything is properly documented, and they’ll verify your specific coverage before your first visit so there are no billing surprises.
Yes, for Medicare-covered in-home therapy, you’ll need a referral or prescription from your physician. The Medcare team works with your doctor’s office to handle the required documentation, so you don’t have to navigate that paperwork alone.
Your first session is an evaluation. The therapist asks about your pain, mobility, and goals, then assesses your strength, balance, and range of motion as you move through your own home. From there, they build a personalized treatment plan (which might include therapeutic exercise, gait training, manual therapy, or balance work) tailored to your specific recovery stage.
There’s no office to park at, the therapist comes to you. What you’ll want to prepare instead is a small, clear space where you can move safely (room to stand, step, and do basic exercises), plus a sturdy chair nearby. Have your insurance card, ID, and any doctor’s paperwork or referral ready, and wear comfortable clothing that allows easy movement in the area being treated.
Rather than fixed office hours, in-home sessions are scheduled around your availability. Most sessions run 45 minutes to an hour and typically happen two to three times a week, depending on your needs and insurance coverage. Call 631-866-6507 to discuss scheduling that works for you.
In many cases, therapy can begin within a few days to a week after discharge, once your surgeon provides clearance and a prescription, early movement is especially important after joint replacements. Medcare Therapy accepts Medicare and most major insurance plans, and most sessions are billed directly to your insurer.
