Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation Unit

For adults following an acute phase of musculoskeletal injury or who have had a bone or joint surgical procedure and require care and rehabilitation before returning to the community.

The Musculo-skeletal (MSK) Rehabilitation Unit is for people who have had bone and joint surgical procedures or other fractures and need rehabilitation and time to recover. Your doctor has determined that you do not need to be in hospital, but you do need extra, intensive therapy and nursing care to build your strength and endurance before going home. This is a rehabilitation and recovery program so the stay is short, probably no more than a few weeks.
