When Rehabilitation Ends
The time will come when your ‘formal’ rehabilitation ends and you will no longer have therapy session with professionals. This does not mean the professionals concerned do not expect you to make any further recovery.
Progress does not necessarily stop just because therapy sessions have finished. Continue to set yourself realistic goals and work towards them by continuing to use the knowledge and skills which you have learned during your rehabilitation.
There is no fixed ration of rehabilitation that is right for everyone – how long your rehabilitation continues will depend on the problems you have and the progress you are making as well as the resources available in your area.
As time goes by after your stroke your situation may change. New problems may arise or old ones resurface. If this happens to you, you may ask your GP to refer you back to the appropriate therapist for a reassessment of your problem and for further treatment or advice.
Some people continue therapy by paying for treatment with private therapists. Contact PhysioFirst for chartered physiotherapists in your area.
