TODD Architects featured in latest issue of Health Business Magazine
Delighted to see Gonzalo Vargas del Carpio, Head of Healthcare, TODD Architects, featured in the latest issue of Health Business Magazine.
In this in-depth piece, Gonzalo considers why rehabilitation has found itself undeservedly neglected as part of the healthcare system, often undervalued and living in the shadow of other higher profile and immediate life-saving treatments. However, he argues, addressing unmet rehabilitation needs is fast becoming a recognised global priority.
Rehabilitation is an important part of the treatment process, reintegrating patients back to their normal lives and improving their quality of living, whilst also relieving pressure on other areas of health service provision.
“It’s true that continuing pressure from rehabilitation charities and professionals on the importance of rehabilitation has seen some progress made in recent years, particularly following the World Health Organizations’ Rehabilitation 2030 call for action. We have also seen Governments commit to a number of high-profile, landmark developments such as the National Rehabilitation Hospital (NRH) in Dublin and the recently green lit National Rehabilitation Centre at Stanford Hall in Nottinghamshire which will combine clinical rehabilitation, R&D, training and education under one roof. However, a more coordinated approach for the rehabilitation of people with long-term conditions is required, particularly at a local level.“
