About Us

Winning Wheels Inc is a non-for profit located in Prophetstown, IL. We are a professional, collaborative, fast-paced facility. Winning Wheels is one of the few care centers in the nation to combine the treatment regime typically associated with a rehabilitation hospital and the daily nursing care provided by a skilled nursing facility. Winning Wheels is located on a picturesque 12 wooded acres in rural Northwestern Illinois.

This quaint small town has proven to be the ideal location for our unique treatment approach. Winning Wheels gives you a wealth of options aimed at a common goal: restoring persons served to their maximum level of physical, social and emotional functioning.

Winning Wheels strives to decrease dependency on institutional care through the provision of rehabilitation services, which foster the development of skills designed to train and assist the individual to live as independently as possible. The Winning Wheels continuum of care is made up of highly trained professionals from a variety of clinical disciplines. Each specialist contributes a detailed evaluation that serves as a building block in the development of a comprehensive, individualized treatment plan.

The Winning Wheels philosophy is based on the concept that rehabilitation should be both outcome-oriented and measurable. Skilled professionals formulate a total treatment regime based on diagnostic information from a variety of clinical evaluations. A comprehensive range of services, including therapies, address the medical, physical, emotional and social needs of each person served. This holistic approach ensures the best possible outcomes.

Specialists from a variety of disciplines (including Physical, Occupational, Speech, and Recreational Therapies, Social Services and Dietary) conduct assessments of each person's needs, abilities, resources and residual deficits. Under the direction of a physician specialist, the Interdisciplinary Treatment Team plans and implements an individualized rehabilitation program for each person served. The treatment team continuously reviews each person's condition and progress reports, and modifies the treatment plan accordingly.

We consider each team member a vital link in the overall rehabilitation process.

All of Winning Wheels' resources are concentrated on eliminating barriers to independent living. Experience has proven that ours is a realistic, attainable goal. Communication, consistency and quality care are the hallmarks of Winning Wheels, Inc.
