PLEASE NOTE
Further guides follow after launch, planned alongside the social media calendar, so the website and social channels build authority together.
The recovery guides currently cover topics such as supporting someone after a spinal cord injury, planning the first two weeks after leaving hospital, choosing a rehabilitation centre after a stroke, and deciding between home physiotherapy and a rehabilitation centre. More guides are planned to be added over time, covering additional conditions and recovery scenarios.
The recovery guides are written and clinically reviewed by members of Dexterity’s rehabilitation team before publication, drawing on their day-to-day clinical experience in neurological and orthopaedic recovery. They’re intended as practical, general guidance for families, and are reviewed periodically to keep the content accurate and useful.
For families who have just left hospital, the guide “Leaving Hospital: Planning the First Two Weeks after Discharge” is the most relevant starting point, since it walks through the practical decisions and preparations needed immediately after coming home.
No, these guides are meant to provide general, practical information and are not a substitute for advice from the patient’s own treating doctor or rehabilitation team. Every patient’s condition is different, so individual medical and therapy decisions should always be made in consultation with the clinicians directly managing their care.
At present, the recovery guides are available only in English on the Dexterity website. Families who prefer to discuss the content in Hindi or another language are welcome to reach out to the care team directly for guidance in a language they are more comfortable with.
Yes, the guides are written with the realities of Indian homes and healthcare settings in mind, covering practical considerations relevant to recovering at home or navigating hospital-to-rehabilitation transitions within the Indian healthcare system, rather than offering generic international advice.
