How ToT Supports The NHS Through Inpatient Rehab Centres

How Therapies on Thames Supports the NHS Through Inpatient Rehabilitation Centres

If you or an elderly relative/friend has recently been admitted to hospital or suffered an illness or fall, you may require temporary after care to help you recover and stay independent at home. This is where inpatient rehabilitation centers, and specially commissioned NHS inpatient care partners – such as Therapies on Thames, really come into supporting the NHS.

Inpatient rehabilitation center partnerships reduce the strain on our hard-working NHS staff and the capacities of NHS hospitals, by providing ongoing treatment to patients in a safe, supervised environment away from hospital.

The Role of Inpatient Rehabilitation Centres for Elderly Patients Leaving Hospital

For patients deemed well enough for hospital discharge, Inpatient rehabilitation centers, enable our specialist teams of physiotherapists and occupational therapists to provide vital after care and rehabilitation for vulnerable patients until they are safe to return home.

Before a hospital discharge, NHS staff will complete an initial care assessment on each patient. This assessment will determine whether there is the need for intermediate (short-term) care and support before leaving hospital and returning home.

If a patient is deemed medically fit for hospital discharge but requires intermediate and reablement care, our specialist physiotherapists will be called into local inpatient rehabilitation clinics to help patients relearn everyday skills needed to live safely and independently at home.

Our specialist NHS inpatient rehabilitation partnerships play a crucial role in supporting local NHS trusts, by enabling elderly patients to receive the care and support they require, in a safe, controlled environment away from hospital – improving overall quality of life and the skills required to live safely and independently at home.
