Recovery does not end when a person leaves the hospital. Recovery can involve weeks of therapy before a person returns to daily life. Social Vision supports physical therapy, rehabilitation and pain management so that the care it helped to arrange leads somewhere.

What the program covers, subject to available funds

  • Courses of physical therapy prescribed by a doctor, arranged with PhysioGym and partner physiotherapists
  • Rehabilitation plans agreed with the treating doctor
  • Pain management with partner specialists when it is part of recovery

Who it is for

People recovering from a medical condition or an injury who cannot afford the sessions their doctor has prescribed. Older people recovering from falls and fractures are a large part of this work.

How it works

A partner clinic proposes a course of sessions based on the doctor’s indication. The foundation reviews the plan and its cost, funds or coordinates the sessions, and follows progress with the clinic so the course is completed rather than abandoned halfway.
