Gladstone Ward

Gladstone ward is a 29 bedded rehabilitation ward for patients following spinal cord injury.

We offer an individualised and comprehensive approach to spinal cord injury rehabilitation with highly specialised and experienced staff, appropriate facilities and equipment.

Rehabilitation aims to maximise neurological recovery, functional abilities and psychological adjustment, to enable the patient to return to the community as independent and productive as possible - and prepared to resume their life.

Patients will actively participate in goal planning   which will be tracked and acknowledged by the multi-disciplinary team, at two-weekly goal planning meetings.  While you are here, our staff will gradually encourage you to take more responsibility for your own care needs so that you become as independent as possible when you leave the Centre.

A weekly schedule is put together to help you reach your goals and usually includes physiotherapy, occupational therapy, hydrotherapy, sports-therapy, nursing and teaching sessions. Please note, we have limited storage space available.
