Rehabilitation residential ward (SP rehabilitation)
Plan your appointment
What can we help you with?
You can rehabilitate in the residential ward after a muscle or joint injury, after problems with the nervous system and after serious heart or lung problems. Just like in a hospital ward, in the residential ward you can call on medical specialties and numerous necessary examinations.
During the rehabilitation process, we work to limit the effects of an accident, injury or illness and help you cope with any permanent limitations. In this way we work together toward a final goal: the highest possible level of independence and, if possible, a return to the previous living situation. You will be supervised by a multidisciplinary team consisting of physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians, neurosurgeons and a rehabilitation team. You can seek psychological help free of charge during your admission.
Who can come to us?
You stay at our department when you experience limitations to function after an acute phase in which rehabilitation is indicated. We always take into account that you are medically stable, have a good motivation and can achieve certain goals.
You can come to us as a result of the following cases:
- complex orthopedic surgery such as back or neck surgery or prosthetic surgery
- polytrauma
- central nervous system disorders such as multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's disease and a stroke
- peripheral nerve injuries
- after amputation
- heart and lung diseases
How long does an admission last?
The length of admission is different for everyone and depends on your situation and condition. At the beginning of the admission, some goals are set in consultation with you, your family and the team. Depending on the evolution within the rehabilitation process and the achieved objectives, a discharge date will be determined.
What happens after my rehabilitation in the residential ward?
If further multidisciplinary rehabilitation is needed, you can go to our rehabilitation center. Otherwise, you will be given a prescription for your own physiotherapist.
