Independent Assessment of Rehabilitation Needs
Following neurological injury or the development of a disabling neurological condition, timely and appropriately coordinated rehabilitation may support recovery, independence and participation in daily life.
Our consultant neurologists assess the nature and extent of the neurological impairment, the individual’s current functional abilities, treatment history, rehabilitation potential and likely future needs.
Where appropriate and within the expert’s clinical expertise, the report may identify suitable rehabilitation strategies, recommend referral to relevant rehabilitation professionals and explain how the proposed intervention relates to the neurological condition and functional limitations.
Recommendations are tailored to the individual rather than based on a standard package. The expert may consider physical, cognitive, communication, psychological, vocational and community-based needs, together with any barriers that may affect participation in rehabilitation.
Where detailed treatment planning falls within another professional discipline, the neurologist may recommend assessment by an appropriately qualified rehabilitation physician, physiotherapist, occupational therapist, speech and language therapist, neuropsychologist or pain specialist.
