A graded rehabilitation program is provided with patients progressing through the various units within the center

ACUTE REHABILITATION CENTER
Patients are admitted to this unit following assessment by the multidisciplinary team.

Emphasis will shift from the patient being a passive recipient of services, as in acute care hospitals, to an active doer in order that the patient can explore the meaning and acquire the necessary skills to cope with a possible handicap.

This department offers intensive training in daily living skills aimed at enabling the patient to function at optimum levels.

All programs are individualized and medically supervised.

PROVISIONAL HOUSING UNIT
Following successful completion of the intensive rehabilitation program, patients will be transferred to this unit. Emphasis is now placed on building the confidence of the patient and family by providing the minimum level of supervision necessary in all activities. The family or care giver are expected to participate in this program
