Our highly qualified physiotherapy team are experts in the management of patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), the Cardiothoracic ward and the surgical ward settings. After a thorough assessment, a customised treatment program will be tailored to your individual needs. Our Physiotherapists will work with you until you are ready for discharge home. At this point, your assigned Physiotherapist will do up a customised plan for you to continue your rehabilitation upon your return home.
If you would like to attend some of our outpatient rehabilitation classes, please ask your Physiotherapist who will be happy to advise you of the benefits and availability.

The benefits of partaking in physiotherapy are innumerable. For cardiac conditions and post cardiac surgeries, physiotherapy helps to avoid any chest complication after your surgery. It promotes earlier mobility after surgery as well as guiding you through different stages of rehabilitation post-surgery. Physiotherapy plays a vital role in helping you return to full function.
