Neuro-behavioural service
Neuro-behavioural Services
Highly specialist service for patients with behaviours that challenge.
The Neuro-behavioural Service at the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability is dedicated to providing exceptional care for individuals with behaviours that challenge.
Our 40-bedded service provides tailored pathways to both individuals who require an episode of rehabilitation before being discharged into the community, and those requiring long-term behaviour management using a positive behaviour support approach.
Specialised support for diverse conditions
Our highly-skilled multi-disciplinary team support people with a diverse range of complex conditions, including management of symptoms for Huntington’s disease and acquired brain injury-related conditions that have affected their behaviour and present challenges to their care. The service provides a homely environment designed by patients, relatives and staff, offering specialist support, a wide range of therapies and round-the-clock nursing care.
The team also provide expert, compassionate palliative care, which is supported by a palliative care consultant from the Royal Trinity Hospice.
Comprehensive and compassionate care at RHN
As part of our charity, RHN offers access to the latest in rehabilitation technology, postural management, music therapy, art room activities, and a wide range of leisure and family services, ensuring a bespoke and holistic experience, enabling people to achieve the best possible standard of living.
Additionally, we offer support for people transitioning to home-based care, including discharge planning, coordinating with local healthcare providers, and providing information for family members to ensure a smooth and effective transition beyond the hospital setting.
