Overview

A service for people with a disability caused by injury or disease affecting the brain, spinal cord or muscles.

The centre is one of the most advanced of its kind in Europe and is a first for the United Kingdom.

Their team of professionals have extensive experience and expertise in the management of physical disabilities, neurobehavioural, neuropsychological, and neuropsychiatric problems.

This fully comprehensive service is delivered from new state-of-the-art premises, purpose designed for modern rehabilitation practice, in the north east of England.


Support available

Walkergate Park provides high quality rehabilitation services on an inpatient, outpatient, day patient or community basis, for people who experience the following consequences of neurological disease:

  • major physical disability affecting mobility, self-care and everyday activities.
  • disturbance of cognition or behaviour.

Their goal is to maximise people's potential for independence. It is a goal that depends on many factors; understanding a past personality, knowing the present, foreseeing the potential future and combining the intricacies of each of these factors into a focused plan.

At Walkergate Park they believe that individualised, inter-disciplinary treatment is the most productive approach to rehabilitation.
