The ART-Team provides a city-wide service and conducts a range of holistic assessment and slow-stream rehabilitation interventions for people with long term conditions. ART-T functions on a hybrid rehabilitation model which combines home visiting and the use of an outpatient gym and therapy room at Nether Edge Outpatient Clinic, Nether Edge Hospital, Lyndhurst Road.
ART-T supports people who have long term conditions including providing a specialist service for people with Parkinson’s. The team aims to improve/maintain a person’s ability to carry out normal daily activities as independently as possible.
Rehabilitation is provided by occupational therapists, physiotherapists, therapy assistants and speech and language therapists dependent upon the person’s goals.
The team also host a medically led falls clinic which provides an assessment of your abilities, falls risk and a medical review. Following your assessment, we may recommend you access the rehabilitation offer.
