Therapeutic Recreation - Rehabilitation Services
Trillium's Therapeutic Recreationists strive to improve patients'
quality of life both in hospital and beyond. Using a variety
of tools and techniques the team works with patients who have
suffered a stroke, brain injury, or aneurysm to help them
regain past skills or develop new ones.
A multidisciplinary team of physiotherapists, nurses, social
workers and of course therapeutic recreationists determine
who would benefit from therapeutic recreation. Patients' interests
and barriers to participation are assessed, and evaluations
on their current situation and future potential are made.
Patients are assisted in regaining or developing skills to
participate in leisure activities. Connections to appropriate
leisure activities and community programs are made whenever
possible.
