Rehabilitation

We devote a lot of our attention to the improvement of fitness of our patients. Under the watchful eye of female physiotherapists, out patients get the chance to have their body functions restored and their pain reduced. What is of particular importance to us is the improvement of mobility of our patients. The residents take advantage of a fully equipped rehabilitation room, but rehabilitators also work with patients in their rooms – individual rehabilitation provided at the bedside. As part of this rehabilitation, passive exercises, thrombosis prevention exercises and contracture prevention are done. Stroke patients and fractures are rehabilitated by tilting patients to erect position and assisted walking, the so-called process of learning to walk.

Rehabilitation of each patient is carried out taking into account their individual needs and abilities as well as on the basis of observation of progress of the person being rehabilitated.
