Rehabilitation
Our rehabilitation support helps people work toward practical movement, communication and everyday-activity goals, with assessment and care from the professional suited to their needs.
Care starts with a conversation and an agreed support plan.
The support we provide
Care shaped around
the person’s needs.
Rehabilitation starts with understanding what matters to the person: moving around the home, managing daily activities or communicating with family. We consider current function, the existing clinical plan and the support available at home.
The relevant professional assesses needs and agrees goals and a review schedule. Physiotherapy, occupational therapy or speech and language input is matched to the individual, with family education and coordination where appropriate.
Physiotherapy
Individualized support for mobility, strength, balance and gait, with progress reviewed against agreed practical goals.
Stroke and post-operative rehabilitation
Rehabilitation linked to the existing clinical plan, with coordination when input from another healthcare professional is needed.
Occupational therapy
Assessment of everyday activities, home safety and functional needs, including suitable assistive-device guidance and caregiver education.
Speech and language support
Professional assessment of communication, aphasia or swallowing-related needs, with the care plan guided by appropriately qualified practitioners.
Home programmes and caregiver education
Individual guidance from the responsible professional to support agreed goals between sessions, with caregiver involvement where appropriate.

Questions about this service
Frequently asked questions
Can rehabilitation be arranged at home?
Yes. Contact the team with your location and care needs. The assessment identifies suitable home support, the relevant professional and the session arrangements.
How do I know which therapy is needed?
Describe the difficulty rather than selecting a therapy yourself. Assessment helps identify whether physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and language input or another referral is appropriate.
How many sessions will I need?
The number and frequency depend on assessment, the goals agreed and progress over time. The professional explains the review schedule and discusses changes to the plan with you.
