Our Services for ClientsWe believe in a participative approach to your rehabilitation
We believe in a participative approach to your rehabilitation – as a client, you’ll undergo an initial assessment where we work with you to identify your own individual support and rehabilitation needs. This tailored approach enables us to work with you to agree worthwhile activities – and set meaningful goals – that will help you to get the most out of the time you spend with us.
