Recovery and rehab at home
If you’ve had surgery or a stay in hospital, we’ll do everything we can to get you back home as soon as possible. That way, you can sleep in your own bed, eat your own food, and enjoy the familiar surroundings of home.
Our main aim is to help you regain your health, happiness and mobility.
Our recovery and rehab programs are designed to help speed up your recovery. We can provide you with all the rehab support you’re likely to need, through a combination of remote care, face to face consultations and guided treatments.
Rehabilitation after surgery
Major surgical procedures like hip and knee replacements can require extensive rehab after surgery. This is a key part of your recovery. Rehab is equally important after a major event such as stroke, cardiac surgery and other major surgical procedures.
The more strength you can build up in the muscles around your new joint, the more likely you are to gain normal movement and the sooner you can get back to everyday life. Rehab also helps ease pain and swelling and reduces the likelihood of blood clots.
If you’re a suitable candidate, you may be able to have rehabilitation at home. That means you could leave hospital sooner and complete your recovery at home, avoiding all the hassle of hospital appointments, travel and parking.
