Orthopaedic/Trauma Rehabilitation

Polytrauma rehabilitation, including orthopaedic and amputee care, is a core area of our practice. We specialise in helping clients maximise their functional potential following multiple serious injuries.

Working both independently and collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams, we address the varied and often complex physical and emotional challenges that arise from polytrauma. Our goal is to remove barriers and facilitate recovery, enabling people to regain function, return to their occupations, and ultimately improve their quality of life.

Our APPROACH

Throughout the rehabilitation journey, people encounter many barriers. As occupational therapy professionals trained in both physical and mental health, we work collaboratively with clients to identify and overcome these obstacles. Our person-centred approach actively engages clients throughout the process, recognising that meaningful participation, at whatever level feels right for each individual, is essential to achieving lasting rehabilitation outcomes.

What people are saying about Rehabilitate Therapy

  • Sara has been absolutely fantastic to work with. She is able to establish good relationships with the client, family and MDT. Goals set with the client were clear and client centred. Communication to MDT and case manager was great. Fantastic OT!

  • I felt the posture/exercise work we did this morning helped me massively with my foot position and sitting, and I am looking forward to working with you! I was impressed that you didn’t struggle when you were helping me to sit up and it was good that we could have a laugh together.
