Rehabilitation Medicine

康复医学科

Plan rehabilitation assessments around function, practical goals and continuity after returning home.

Rehabilitation aims to help maintain or improve abilities needed in daily life after illness, injury or treatment. A program may involve physical, occupational, speech or other therapies. The team, setting and duration depend on the goals being assessed.

Common consultation topics

  • Mobility
  • Daily activities
  • Recovery planning

Records to discuss with the hospital

  • A rehabilitation or discharge summary, if available
  • Information about mobility, communication and assistance needed in daily activities

Questions before booking

  • Which professionals and setting are involved in the proposed assessment?
  • How would a plan be handed over to my local team for continuing care?

Check the exact campus, clinician, appointment language and follow-up arrangements directly with the hospital. These are planning questions; the provider should tell you which documents and assessments are needed for your own appointment.
