What is a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)?

It’s an injury to the brain caused by a blow, fall, accident, or other trauma — and it can change everything. Movement, speech, memory, emotions — all the things we often take for granted can suddenly become daily challenges.

But there is a way forward.

At Nurture Health, we walk this road with our patients and their families. Whether it's learning to walk again, finding your words, or regaining confidence in facing the world again — our team of rehab specialists is here to help rebuild lives with care, skill, and compassion.

We work closely with your funder, whether it be a medical aid, RAF or COID, we are here to help.

It’s about Better Tomorrows...

Here at our hospitals, we prioritise meaningful movement. Unlike traditional acute hospitals, where patients remain in bed for the majority of the day, at Nurture Health, your daily routine is vastly different.

From meeting with your occupational therapist in our rehabilitation gym to one-on-one sessions with your specialists, and of course, spending time with your loved ones who have come to visit, your day involves active participation, with some coaching and support from our team.

Behind every patient’s recovery is a team of medical professionals, clapping louder than ever and celebrating each milestone.

Our team works tirelessly to create personalised treatment plans for our patients so they can recover and enjoy better tomorrows. However, care goes both ways.

And, during this corporate wellness week, we not only want to show our gratitude to our staff, but also remind them that you can’t pour from an empty cup. Your wellness matters too, so remember to check in, pause, and breathe.

Nurture Health provides medical care, and acute and sub-acute rehabilitation treatment for people with a wide range of disabilities caused by disease or injuries.

At Nurture Health, we know that recovery is a team effort — and that includes the caregiver.

A caregiver is often a family member, friend, or trusted person chosen to support the patient at home after discharge. This may be help with mobility and bathing to medication and emotional support.

That’s why our expert led Clinical Teams provide caregiver training before every patient goes home guided by a comprehensive manual.

🧠 We guide you.
🛠️ We train you.
📘 We equip you with our comprehensive Caregiver Training Manual – filled with practical tips, safety checklists, and daily rehab exercises.
🤝 And we remain available for support.

"Believe in yourself, and you will be unstoppable".

On Friday, 6 June, this amazing therapy team were spoiled for the unbelievable work they do for our patients. As the quote states, these ladies believe in every patient that enters our facility.
They encourage, they motivate, they speak soft when it is needed, they raise a voice when needed, but above all, they do all this in love.
