How to refer

To be referred to the Community Stroke and Neurological Rehabilitation or Early Supported Discharge services you must be aged over 18, registered with a local GP and require a short term goal directed programme, for a problem related to a neurological condition.

Referrals can be received from GPs, local Hospitals or Secondary Care Inpatient Rehabilitation. Most people will be referred directly via a health care professional. If you feel you would benefit from these services you should discuss this with your GP or other health care professional to make a referral on your behalf if it's deemed appropriate.
