Rehabilitation that continues after you go home

The physiotherapy clinic runs daily sessions for recovery after surgery, orthopaedic injuries and neurological conditions, with each session lasting 30 or 45 minutes depending on what your programme needs. A physiotherapist works through movement, strength and function with you at every visit.

Before your course of treatment ends, you leave with a written home programme so progress continues between sessions and after discharge. For patients on the ward, respiratory physiotherapy is provided at the bedside to support breathing and recovery alongside medical treatment.
