Physiotherapy
RMS-MKCC Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation department offers evidence-based services to medical, surgical, and paediatric patients, by a team of highly qualified physiotherapists specialized in cardiorespiratory physiotherapy. Services are offered daily including weekends and a 24 hour on-call service is available to provide urgent care for patients with critical cardiorespiratory conditions.
The services cover a wide range of cardiorespiratory interventions, including respiratory physiotherapy, mobilization, critical care rehabilitation, cardiac rehabilitation, Neuro rehabilitation, and preventative education. The Specialized care begins in the critical care unit’s post-surgery or intervention, where therapists facilitate respiratory and mobility function until discharge.
A fully functional gym and a range of special equipment are available when required to assist in achieving specific treatment goals in preparation for discharge. Each patient will be discharged with a home exercise programme that was initiated in hospital and some will get individualised programmes tailored to meet their specific needs. Family members are also involved in patients care prior to discharge to assist with the home integration process.
Patients are also seen at the outpatient clinic, following their discharge, to ensure their adherence to the previously prescribed exercise program and to address any concerns relating to their functional or respiratory status.
The cardiac Rehabilitation programme is designed to assist, educate, and motivate patients towards personal responsibility for disease prevention. This programme focuses on exercise, diet, and psychological health. The programme is available to patients post cardiac events such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, and cardiac procedures such as angioplasty.
The physiotherapy and rehabilitation department constantly strives to provide the best up to date evidence-based interventions to all patients. The staff members constantly update their education, training, and development to improve service delivery and quality of care to all.
