Our facilities
The unit has 14 intermediate care beds and six level 2B neuro-rehabilitation beds.
The intermediate care beds are nurse-led, offering care for adults with rehabilitation and/or nursing needs (for example to regain mobility after a fracture or an operation). Care is supported by therapists, GPs and consultants in elderly care.
The level 2B neuro-rehabilitation beds are part of the South East London Neuro Rehabilitation Service. They are consultant-led and offer specialist intensive rehabilitation for 6-12 weeks for people with a new onset or episode of a neurological injury or condition.
