Time, hospital stay & appointments

Times are planning guides, not national averages or guaranteed schedules. They reflect published provider examples and patient guidance. The treating team confirms the individual plan, time needed near the clinic and fitness to travel. Waiting lists are not included.

Procedure or course duration
Session length, weekly frequency and overall programme duration must be specified by the rehabilitation team. The cited services do not define one standard course for every condition.
Hospital stay
Outpatient therapy is available. Inpatient rehabilitation is a separate care pathway requiring its own assessment and admission plan.
Visits and repeat attendance
1 functional assessment, repeated supervised sessions and progress reviews. Ask how many sessions require attendance and which exercises continue at home.
Recovery and travel planning
Obtain a written home programme and a handover to the local therapist when travelling. Hospital discharge and completion of rehabilitation are different milestones.
