We are a team of professionals working together to help people who have been clinically diagnosed with a stroke, subarachnoid haemorrhage or acquired brain injury within the last 12 months, or with a diagnosis of a progressive neurological condition and who have the potential for improvement through rehabilitation. Our team will work with the patient and their families to help them manage at home and in the community either through rehabilitation or resettlement/support.

We can help with:

• Speaking or communicating.
• Swallowing food or drink.
• Getting around, pain or weakness in joints or muscles.
• Coping with everyday tasks at home, work or leisure.
• Coping emotionally and acceptance of change.
• Understanding memory and behaviour changes.
• Energy management.

Our team consists of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapist; nurses; rehabilitation technicians and a clinical psychologist.
