A stroke is usually caused by a blocked vessel or a bleed in the brain.
Patients may experience a variety of physical problems ranging from limb weakness, difficulties in speaking and swallowing to cognitive difficulties of memory and mood disturbances.
The specialist-led multidisciplinary team will work closely with you to maximise your recovery and functional independence.
Key features of the inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation Programme include:
- Rehabilitation therapy with appropriate use of technology and robotics
- Weekly multidisciplinary meetings to discuss patient's progress and goals
- Provision of caregiver training, advice on assistive equipment prescription and home modification
- Comprehensive spasticity management
Upon discharge, continued rehabilitation at appropriate rehabilitation centres in the community will be recommended if needed.
