Stroke rehabilitation is a critical component of stroke care aimed at helping stroke survivors regain independence, improve functional abilities, and maximize their quality of life following a stroke. Stroke rehabilitation typically begins as soon as the patient's medical condition stabilizes and continues throughout the recovery process, which may last weeks, months, or even years, depending on the severity of the stroke and individual factors. The Rehabilitation Unit is a specialized clinic within our hospital that focuses on providing comprehensive care for individuals with disabilities, impairments, or functional limitations. The goal of physical medicine and rehabilitation is to enhance and restore functional ability, improve quality of life, and promote independence.
The purpose of rehabilitation is to help patients:
To Reduce pain, Improve the quality of life, Recover from temporary or severe impairment And Learn how to use assistive devices, such as braces, wheelchairs, and walkers.
Stroke rehabilitation involves a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including physiatrists (rehabilitation physicians), neurologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, psychologists, social workers, and rehabilitation nurses. This team collaborates to address the diverse needs of stroke survivors and optimize their recovery.
