Outpatient Rehabilitation Program
An assessment of the patient is made by a physiatrist who sets an individualized rehabilitation program depending on the condition, age and related conditions at the initial visit. Patients from abroad and their families can choose the outpatient program during their stay in Loutraki. We can help them choose accommodation to suit their needs and standards.
Rehabilitation Program
Once admission is complete, your personalized therapy program begins. The physiatrist and rehabilitation nurse will begin the initial process of evaluation. You will also participate in several evaluation sessions provided by other members of the rehabilitation team who will work with you throughout your inpatient stay. The team will then design a treatment program which is based on your needs, the team's goals and the goals that you or your family wish to achieve. The treatment team involved in your rehabilitation process includes you (the patient), family members, referring physicians and the rehabilitation specialists. The Physiatrist leads the rehabilitation team which is assigned to your care.
