We are fortunate that the UK has one of the best road safety records in the world however this does not mean that we are fortunate enough to avoid death and serious injuries on our roads. Road safety is seen as a matter of national importance and the government and charities such as Brake are continuously working towards improving roads, driver awareness and our overall attitudes through many campaigns.
When a road victim is seriously injured as a result of a road traffic accident, it is a tragedy that leaves their life ruined, effecting everything in their professional life, leaving their family shattered and having a huge impact on personal relationships.
It goes without saying that it is important for the focus to be on recovery from the physical aspects of the injury with the aim of rehabilitating to where that individual was before the accident occurred. However, sometimes this is not possible and the victim is faced with the challenge of coping with a body that works in a completely new and different way.
Rehabilitation is key for those who are seriously injured. The aim is to restore strength, flexibility and endurance
in order to assist them in coping with the lasting effects of the injury and all complications.
Every rehabilitation journey is completely unique. Rehabilitation programmes are designed assessing the individual’s needs and requirements using an initial needs assessment to identify the exact steps that will assist recovery.
The Serious Injury team at Ramsdens Solicitors focus on rehabilitation from the start of any claim ensuring they support not only the victim but their families aiding their needs to rebuild and work towards their aims for the future.
