On the orthopaedic ward, our highly trained physiotherapists are involved at an early stage to assist in regaining movement, strength and independence following injury or surgery.

The physiotherapists and occupational therapists work in partnership with doctors and nurses to provide patients with personal care, facilitating optimal recovery. This may include exercises, prescription of walking aids, gait re-education, education on slings and braces and valuable advice to help you make a safe transition home. Our team’s priorities are your recovery and rehabilitation.

If you have suffered an acute injury (resulting from trauma) and present to our Emergency Department, you may be referred to our Trauma Clinic. Here, you will be reviewed by one of our orthopaedic nurses and orthopaedic registrar, who will advise on a management plan to assist your recovery.

Our orthopaedic department has access to the latest technologies throughout all areas of the specialty including the use of robots, such as the Mako and CORI, patient specific instrumentation, navigated surgery and constant improvements in equipment and techniques.

Robots are accurate and useful tools which assist our surgeons in performing complex procedures with increased accuracy and control. Your surgeon will advise you on whether or not robotic surgery is the right option for you.
