How To Choose The Right Rehabilitation Center in Malaysia For Your Needs?

 


After an injury, trauma, or medical procedure, finding the right rehabilitation center like Well Rehab for your specific needs is an important step in your recovery. It's a good idea to find out how their team plans to work with you while you are there and how they can help you with moving home.

Here are some tips on how to choose the right facility for you:

1. Offer specific programs for your needs

First, think about what type of rehabilitation you are looking for based on the specific reason you need treatment. Confirm that the center doctors prescribe the appropriate therapies for the specific medical event that triggered your rehabilitation need and for your treatment goals.

2. Provided 24 hours a day. If not, how often is treatment or therapy offered?

Authorized rehabilitation facilities require that patients receive at least three hours of therapy per day, five days per week. If your recovery plan needs care outside of daytime hours or if you need any type of medication or service during the night, make sure you select a facility that meets those hours. You will need to ask if 24-hour health coverage is provided and also if you will be working with different caregivers at different times.

3. Qualification of the staff

You might ask which staff members have advanced degrees or are certified by the board of directors. You may also want to know if the nursing staff includes registered nurses who are certified in rehabilitation nursing and / or if they have experience in intensive care. (The purpose of acute care is to improve health in a shorter period of time to prevent the development of more chronic conditions.)

4. How are the treatment plans developed?

It is common for fully developed treatment plans to involve partnerships between a variety of medical professionals. Together, they form the complete team that will generate a specific treatment plan for you. For example, doctors and nurses may work alongside physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, recreational therapists, psychologists, or social workers. Often, it takes a team of many to manage the plan that works best for you for a full recovery.

5. One on one or in a group

Sometimes individual appointments may be preferable. They allow therapists to design a plan to meet your specific needs. On the other hand, group settings can offer encouragement, emotional support, connection, and social opportunities.

6. Do caregivers help with discharge and insurance questions?

During your treatment or after it is completed, you may need help navigating the non-medical part of your treatment, such as billing, insurance, or home care. Ask if patients are assigned to social workers or case managers who can help coordinate services at home or who can help verify insurance benefits and understand their billing and expense questions. If necessary, ask who of the staff will be your point of contact to help you with follow-up care.

7. Are outpatient medical and therapeutic services offered?

Ask if there will be comprehensive follow-up services, including outpatient therapy and home care, available through rehabilitation professionals in your area. Your doctor or the facility itself can provide you with a reference list.

Additionally, finding a suitable physical therapist or rehab facility can involve a number of factors, including insurance acceptance, specialty and reason for treatment, and geographic location. Insurance companies often have lists of physical therapy locations that participate in specific health plans. Other healthcare professionals may have a list of therapists in the area they refer to.
