Our acute neurological rehabilitation centre
The Wellington Hospital's Acute Neurological Rehabilitation Centre is the largest private centre in the UK. Designed specifically for rehabilitation patients, we provide intensive and bespoke programmes of care for patients particularly those with complex neurological injuries and conditions such as a stroke, head injury or spinal cord injury. We have a Neurological Rehabilitation Unit, Prolonged Disorders of Consciousness Unit (PDOC), Medical Rehabilitation Programme, Functional Restoration Programme (FRP) and many more.
Conditions we provide rehabilitation programmes for
Acoustic neuroma
Also known as a vestibular schwannoma, a non-cancerous (benign) brain tumour.
Brain tumours
Brain tumours are sadly the most common type of tumour in children. Early warning signs include headaches, vomiting or seizures. Our consultants will use a range of diagnostic methods to try to quickly locate and identify any tumour including CT/MRI scans, blood tests and biopsies. They may then recommend surgery or steroids/medication for your child, depending on the size and location of the tumour. At HCA Healthcare UK, you’ll have all the right experts at hand to help deliver the best possible outcomes, care and support for your child and your whole family.
Cerebral hypoxia
Cerebral hypoxia occurs when the brain gets less oxygen than it needs because of an injury from a fall, an assault or a traffic accident. Symptoms such as seizures, memory loss and vomiting and treatment will vary depending on the severity of the injury, ranging from monitoring to surgery and rehabilitation.
Cerebral palsy
The term cerebral palsy refers to a group of conditions, all related to problems with muscle control and movement. These conditions are caused by a brain injury before, during or after birth. Although they are lifelong, there are a range of treatments available to support your child's development.
Chronic pain
Chronic pain impacts on your physical and mental wellbeing. Our experts explain the causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment options available.
Dementia
A syndrome associated with a continuous decline of brain function.
Dysphagia
Dysphagia is the medical term for swallowing difficulties, which can affect children and adults for a number of different reasons.
Private Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) Treatment
From complex surgery to straightforward procedures, we provide exceptional care across our network of hospitals, outpatient centres and specialist clinics.
Mini stroke (TIA)
From complex neurology to diagnostic tests and procedures, we provide exceptional treatment and therapy care across our network of hospitals, outpatient centres and specialist clinics.
Neuropathic pain
If your child has burning, aching or electric shock sensations in some parts of their body, they may be experiencing neuropathic pain. This can also cause pins and needles, numbness and weakness. Although it is usually unresponsive to common painkillers, neuropathic pain can be treated by investigating and treating the cause of the pain.
Parkinson's disease
From complex surgery to straightforward procedures, we provide exceptional care across our network of hospitals, outpatient centres and specialist clinics.
Spinal cord injury
Our highly advanced, multidisciplinary rehabilitation service combines treatment programmes, consultants and therapists
Spinal trauma and fracture
Whilst spinal fractures will cause pain and restrict your mobility, the most severe cases may leave a patient with irreversible, life-changing consequences. Our spinal specialists provide expert advice, precise diagnosis and effective fractured spine treatment.
Stroke
HCA UK provides a multi-disciplinary neurorehabilitation recovery programme for those who have had a stroke.
In the event of an acute stroke please call 999 attend your nearest emergency department.

Care centred around you
The way we come together as a team of experts means we can offer the highest quality of care to patients from all over the world. We bring together world-leading experts from a range of specialisms to work together as a multidisciplinary team (MDT), centred around the patient’s rehabilitation needs.
Your personalised team may include consultants, specialist nurses, physiotherapists, neuropsychologists, speech and language therapists, occupational therapists and more.
Because only the best will do
Each of our treatment programmes is individually tailored and goal orientated. We discuss goals, expectations and achievements with you and your family on admission, regularly during the programme, and on discharge.
We measure all clinical outcomes using the Modified Barthel Index (MBI). MBI is an outcome measure used by the clinical team to measure everyday functions, such as mobility, going to the toilet, feeding and getting dressed. We record this measure on admission and discharge to measure progress.

We offer a free clinical assessment to all patients who make an enquiry with us. You can speak to one of our rehabilitation advisors who will be happy to arrange this for you.
