Programme Structure
Each programme begins with an initial assessment to determine specific rehabilitation needs and to establish a programme structure with time based goals. Where requested, copies of reports are sent to relevant health professionals. Regular communication with these individuals is maintained to ensure a unified approach to treatment.
Based on the results of the assessment, the frequency, intensity and structure of the programme is developed. Where appropriate to the injury or condition, our programme includes referral to an Accredited Practicing Dietitian or Remedial Massage Specialist. The rehabilitation programme is run over a 12 week period with
two to three contact sessions per week.
A home exercise programme is also provided to maximise the completion of outcomes. Our aim is to educate clients on the rehabilitation process and promote independence by reducing the number of contacts as the programme progresses.
