Community Rehabilitation Facilities

The Community Rehabilitation Service is made up of a team of specialists who work with anyone over 16 who needs rehabilitation. We will work with people and their families to improve their independence, whatever their diagnosis may be. We also work closely with Social Services.

Care can be provided in people’s homes, a day hospital, residential or nursing homes, and clinics.

Community Ward D43

The Community Ward D43 – also known as a Medically Fit for Discharge ward – is based at Sheldon Block, Ground Floor, City Health Campus.

We take patients who are deemed medically stable to be discharged but there may be a delay in going home. We focus entirely discharging them safely and efficiently with support from their family.

We have experts in discharges and the sometimes complicated process that comes with it. We have discharge liaison nurses, community case managers, social workers and an occupational therapist.

Nursing staff  are trained to recognise if you become unwell again.

The unit is nurse-led and there are GP visits three times a week, but there is also access to the out of hours service – speak to a member of the team for more information.

We encourage patients to wear their own clothes and to make use of the dining and lounge areas. Family participation is greatly encouraged, and we have an open visiting culture (between 11am-9pm).

Leasowes Intermediate Care Centre

Each patient being cared for at Leasowes has their own room with their own en-suite bathroom area.

There is a large therapy gym, assessment kitchen, as well as shared dining facilities to support social contact. There are indoor and outdoor spaces for those receiving care to meet with visitors away from their bedspace if they prefer.

You will need to bring day and night clothes and toiletries, and everyone is encouraged to used the shared facilities during the day including for dining as part of their ongoing rehabilitation. Whilst our team are on hand to help you, you will be encouraged to be as independent as possible and will be central in the decision making about your goals and progress.
