Our clinical partners at Universitätsklinikum Düsseldorf have just published their perspectives and experiences on using virtual reality with patients in the intensive care unit. Great to see Immersive Rehab ‘s digital therapeutic #neurorehabilitation programmes featured in the publication. You can read it here.

The team also published a review on the use of virtual and augmented reality in cardiovascular care in the Journal of American College of Cardiology the team at Immersive Rehab contributed to. You can read it here.

Isabel here!

5 years ago I started Immersive Rehab, and I have worked on the company’s growth with the mission to improve patient outcomes for neurological patients going through neurorehabilitation and help enhance patient assessments for healthcare professionals. 

Covid has definitely shaken up things for us all and the future remains unclear, but the past 5 years have been an incredible journey down many professional and personal roads. Thank you to everyone who has joined me on this journey. I am very grateful for your support.

Hope you are doing well.

2020 has been a very challenging year for everyone, and in particular for our clinical partners, the healthcare professionals we work with at Immersive Rehab and their patients. COVID19 has had a severe impact on all health and social care services, including neurorehabilitation services.

I am hopeful that the future will be better on many fronts and will be filled with new prospects, new experiences, hope and joy. Read more about our plans in our last newsletter of 2020.

Wishing you a good end of the year and healthy start of the new year. Stay well and take care.

Warm wishes,
Isabel

4th Anniversary!

4 years ago I founded Immersive Rehab with the vision to help improve neurorehabilitation services and the access to it for people affected by neurological conditions like stroke, multiple sclerosis and spinal injury. We are still working every day on delivering on our mission and bring our vision to life. I would like to thank our clinical partners for their trust in our approach, the patients we have worked with so far and their feedback, our corporate partners and collaborators, and our support network of advisors, investors and fellow entrepreneurs.

I look forward to continue the journey with them with the aim to improve overall outcomes for patients affected by neurological disorders.

Hope you are all hanging in there during this public health crisis and times of high uncertainty.

As our mission at Immersive Rehab is to help people affected by neurological conditions with their neurorehabilitation and recovery, I wanted to provide some immediate online neurorehabilitation resources for patients affected by stroke, multiple sclerosis and spinal injury. These resources have been developed by official bodies, organisations and physical therapists working with and for patients with neurological conditions. You can find the list below.

BEWARE: THIS LIST IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE.
ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL OR PHYSICAL THERAPIST BEFORE BEGINNING ANY NEW EXERCISE ROUTINE.

Feel free to share it with those looking for online neurorehabilitation resources during this public health crisis.

Stay well and take care of yourselves & each other!
Isabel
