Spinal Injuries

Published

Hi, I work on a spinal injuries unit in England and would be interested to know a little about your rehab programmes in Canada. I am in the process of applying for rehab posts in other countries. Any info on Bowel and bladder management, community reintergration and psychological issues would be great. Thanks kath

Specializes in most of them.

The anatomy remains the same of course...lol

But seriously, having worked in a few US states I would have to say program content varies from facility to facility. Diff meds, diff ways of doing things.

You could write to specific institutions you might be interested in and the human resource person could put you in touch with the nurse manager of the rehab unit. They could send you some of their patient teaching materials etc so you could look at them and make decsions.

Good luck
