Spinal Injury

Suffering a spinal injury can be a life-altering event, affecting a person’s mobility, independence, and overall quality of life. While medical advancements have improved the outlook for spinal injury patients, the journey towards regaining independence can be complex and challenging. This is where the correct care becomes a pivotal part of the recovery and adaptation process.

Spinal injuries can cause varying degrees of disability, from partial paralysis to complete loss of motor function below the level of injury. We understand that such a sudden change can be disconcerting, leading to significant physical and psychological challenges. Patients must navigate a new reality where basic tasks may require assistance, and their sense of independence might feel compromised.

Amidst these challenges, providing nurse led personalised care at home can play an instrumental role in helping patients find their way back to independence. Our personalised home care & nursing services provide patients with the support they need to manage daily tasks, facilitate physical rehabilitation, and provide psychological support depending on the individual’s needs, preferences, and goals. We can support with:

• Providing personal care, such as helping with washing, dressing, toileting, and medication.
• Providing mobility support, such as assisting with transfers, walking, and using equipment.
• Providing rehabilitation support, such as helping with exercises, physiotherapy, and occupational therapy.
• Providing social and emotional support, such as offering companionship, listening, and counselling.
• Providing practical support, such as helping with household tasks, shopping, and cooking.
• Providing respite support, such as giving the family carers a break or relief.
• Providing emergency support, such as responding to any urgent or unexpected situations.
