Life Healthcare provides specialised healthcare facilities that offer both inpatient and outpatient services, including acute rehabilitation, mental healthcare, renal dialysis and oncology. Our specialised care model promotes continuity of care and uniquely positions Life Healthcare to provide comprehensive therapeutic interventions for chronically ill patients.
Facilities that provide for patients with disabling or traumatic brain injuries, offering acute physical and cognitive rehabilitation. Our focus on patient care helps to restore quality of life for our patients and their families.
Life Rehabilitation uses the Functional Assessment Measure (FAM) for cognitive, behavioural, communication and community functioning, which provides insight on patients with brain injuries. We measure the clinical outcomes of each patient and track their overall progress to benchmark the performance of rehabilitation units and denote clear patient outcomes. In this way, we can support patients’ families and provide in-depth detail to healthcare funders during the rehabilitation process.
Life Rehabilitation is International Standards Organisation (ISO) 9001 2015 certified and also a certified licence holder for the Functional Independence Measure™ (FIM™) in South Africa, which allows us to evaluate the functional status of patients during their rehabilitation process.
