Rehabilitation Services
Rehabilitation is the process of restoring and maintaining optimal levels of wellness and mobility. At Southern Highlands Private Hospital, we work closely with the patient, their family and the rehabilitation team to maximise function and independence.
Our hospital features a well-equipped gymnasium and hydrotherapy pool to support our patients in their rehabilitation journey.

How to access
For our inpatient programs, a referral from your GP or specialist is all that is required. If you are already an inpatient at Southern Highlands Private Hospital, we can organise the referral for you.
Our admissions team will check with your health fund to make sure you are fully covered. If you are not privately insured, we will provide a quote for the costs of the program.
You will be assessed by the Rehabilitation Physician prior to the commencement of your individual program.
For Day Programs, you do not need a referral. For more information, call us on 02 4862 9400 or complete the form below.
