Making Rehabilitation Work Better for People
Penny Roberts – Service user member of the NHS England Improving
Rehabilitation Services Delivery Board
Rehabilitation is everyone’s business
• It starts with the messages given to people at the very beginning, after accident, illness or injury.
People see me and assume I have no function other than to be 'cared for'
• We need to change that expectation
• Education and change of attitude is the key
Rehabilitation should empower patients to 'get back to living life'
• We need to change that expectation rather than imposing a standardised care system that people can't escape
Rehabilitation needs to be seen in a more flexible way
• …not just a period one goes through, in-between being 'ill' and 'totally cured'
An integrated budget made the biggest difference to me
• Assistants, supporting me to get on with my life, made the difference between being the real me and ‘an existence’
We need to measure and value the difference made by quality of life
• Previously, I was visited by up to 15 different people in a day (carers, district nurses etc.)
• I had: – many health problems
– poor quality care
– frequent hospital admissions
– pressure sores
– pain
– and an expectation that this would never improve
Which is best value? • I am now well... I don't take
any drugs, I don't have any of the complications expected for a spinal injured patient of 20 years
• I haven't had a hospital admission for 16 years, I rarely see my GP, I have no pain and I'm fit and active
• I also contribute to society and I'm an employer and educator of others

Stroke Survivors views
•Most recipients of rehabilitation biggest
complaint is that the “dosage” is rationed
•That the NHS in being “evidence” driven
doesn’t use the evidence of users views, or
recognise adequately that research itself
does not exist to specify good practice so
many questions are unanswered.
•That the “system” constrains patient centric
care

Done with, not done to
• Why rehabilitation, people need to understand , and
consequences
• Linking in to support mechanisms beyond the medical
• The NHS is not the health system, it is a very important
component, but there are other resources..
• Most limited resources are time and expertise, the therapist
has expertise, the client has time, how can the challenge of
this be met
• NHS is dominated by risk aversion and problematic change
management, culture clash with those determined to give
patient choice
Stroke Helpline 0303 3033 100

Dosage rationing and closed system.
Income and Costs Fixed Income too low Costs too high
Fix income, (bring in more) or close Fix the operations by achieving productivity improvement (costs held but work faster, longer, or smarter to pack in more)
Reduce operation (dosage or numbers employed) to meet income
Can’t reduce costs or fix operations then find someone else to do it, part of it or close
Room for re managing is very small
Stroke Helpline 0303 3033 100
stroke.org.uk
Dosage limited, consequences are
• NHS System works within budget
• Concept of a patient journey to a goal they determine along
a care pathway has to be a secondary consideration
• Concept of researching positive change further along 2, 5 ,
10 years not done very often. Result is concept of
structured services around patients based on optimising
individuals over years doesn’t occur
• NHS patients not receiving rehabilitation that could reduce
societal costs and possibility of reduced years of life with
quality of life reductions
Stroke Helpline 0303 3033 100

Expanding the view, options
• State gives more money to NHS rehabilitation
• Look for Productivity improvements particularly using new
technologies that the patient can use at home or with family
• Less individual, more group work
• New systems of working involving more resource being
brought in. Broadening concept of good practice
• Examples from the Stroke Association
• Communication Support and Communication +
• Stroke Association Child Stroke project with Evelina
• London Back to Work Service

Children and stroke • Operating out of the Evelina Hospital and within
the Community
• Child stroke support co-ordinator
• Conduit to help parents/child understand the
therapies and work out what is appropriate
• Previous potentially long waits for therapy is
resolved
• Integration across geographies and system
• Better independence, outcomes and benefits for
child and family over a lifetime.

Return to work • Almost a third (31%) of strokes occur in people under 65
• For many returning to work is important, not just for financial
reasons but to rebuild confidence and regain independence.
• Return to existing work can be possible but also new
opportunities including volunteering
• Unfortunately only a small number are successful in returning to
work.
• Impairments caused by stroke can act as a barrier to some roles,
these may not become clear until survivor has returned to work –
can result in crisis points
• Lack of stroke awareness from employers, failure to focus on
what survivors can do and a lack of practical support to help
build survivors confidence and skills are also significant.
• Currently vocational rehabilitation services are patchy

Back to work Project • 3 year Back to Work project in London provides support and
guidance for stroke survivors to return to existing work after
stroke or to access new opportunities
• Caseload of around 25 people at various stages of
• Support for survivors through workshops on topics like
mindfulness, confidence building and assertiveness in the
workplace
• Focus on working with survivors and employers to find low cost
practical solutions to some of the barriers they experience
• Works with employers through information, advice and training
on stroke and it’s impacts
• Works best when alongside team of multidisciplinary
professionals

• Individuals and families cope better
• More people drawn into supportive and change driven
activity

• Therapists as part of a network, fight against arbitrary
bureaucratic boundaries
• Cost effective over long term
