Rehabilitation and Therapy Services
The rehabilitation & therapy services programme is based on an initial assessment and reviewed further following admission and again after a “settling in” period. Established goals are worked through and regular reviews take place to ensure that progress is maintained at a pace that individuals can comfortably manage. Rehabilitation is focused around Physical, Functional, Cognitive and Emotional paradigms integrated into Social and other associated needs.
Physical and Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy performs an essential role in our Rehabilitation Pathway. Cognitive skills are assessed prior to admission and are then developed using Process Training. Processed training tasks are used in order to improve attention skills in conjunction with functional tasks. We help develop functional tasks, strategy training and personal education. The remaining cognitive skills including visual processing, information processing, memory and final executive functioning are then assessed and developed using a similar approach.
Throughout cognitive rehabilitation therapy, an individual personal profile is developed. This is designed to help educate and inform the individual about their brain injury or neurological condition and the impact this has on their lives and also haw this effects their families and friends. In further supporting individual needs and aspirations, we offer therapy organized around:-Menu

Emotional Therapy
Following Brain Injury many people experience physiological and emotional issues as they come to terms with the curtailment of their former abilities. This can include diminished social roles, friendships/relationships and functional abilility Under the direction of our Consultant Clinical Psychologist, our therapist team help the individual adapt and develop coping strategies to deal the change in their circumstances. Families and friends may also experience difficulties with "acceptance" and loss of the person they used to know and we work closely with a number of organizations who provide helpful support and information.
Vocational Therapy
Our Occupational Therapy team interacts with both internal teams and also with external agencies to support clients in meeting their Educational and Vocational goals. On-going progress achieved through the rehabilitation process then leads the clients to be assessed for work and educational placements as appropriate.
Social Therapy
We actively encourage social interaction as part of our therapeutic intervention programme and facilitate this through therapy groups and/or through social events held across the site and in the community. We offer an active social programme of daily events which includes regular outings/day trips all based around a main theme of progressive care and rehabilitation.
