What is the role of physiotherapy on the Lewin Stroke and Rehabilitation Unit?
The Lewin Stroke and Rehabilitation Unit was officially opened in October 2000. It has 20 beds for acute stroke patients and 10 beds for rehabilitation. It is, therefore, for patients who are recovering from stroke or for those who require on-going rehabilitation after traumas such as neurological events, head injuries and accidents. Physiotherapists based in this Unit provide an effective and intensive physiotherapy service to maximise the recovery and independence of these patients.
