Daehan Rehabilitation Hospital Putrajaya Gives Patients A New Lease On Life

Established in Malaysia in December 2019, Daehan is the largest rehabilitation hospital in Southeast Asia—bringing in an experienced Korean medical team and ensuring their therapists undergo the strictest and most stringent of trainings in South Korea. 

The specialise in but are not limited to the management and treatment of neurological disorders and illnesses (for both children and adults) such as strokes, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injuries. 

Taking on a bio-psycho-social-physical-technological approach, each patient first undergoes consultation so that Daehan can create a comprehensive programme tailored to the patient’s needs.  

Their impressive roster of treatments includes: 

• Complete multidisciplinary rehab

• Physiotherapy

• Occupational therapy

• Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) therapy

• Pain therapy

• Dysphagia rehabilitation

• Pulmonary rehabilitation

• Speech therapy

• Robotics 

• Activities of Daily Living (ADL)

• Return to Work programme 

• Car transfer training

Despite the wide range of offerings, they are all bound together by an intensive inpatient rehab model. Patients clock in 18 to 36 hours per week with the gruelling but effective sessions featuring advanced technologies when determined to be beneficial. 

Depending on the type of disease or injury, Daehan leverages robot assisted gait training, hydrotherapy treadmill, antigravity treadmill, exoskeletal robot, and more to ensure patients not only see an improvement, but that they are able to gain and regain their independence. 

This differs vastly from the traditional physiotherapy sessions in which the main objective is to help patients walk or eat again and assimilate them back into their daily lives but with the help of a caregiver. Not to mention, they usually operate on an outpatient basis with two to four hours per week dedicated to a patient using basic machine and manual intervention in treatments. 

Daehan’s unwavering commitment to delivering only the highest standards of treatment and medical services—encouraging and motivating patients to be disciplined despite the difficult sessions— has been acknowledged by their patients who have been echoing glowing reviews. 

One enthused, “I was able to walk again with Daehan’s robot-therapy machine. Since the accident, I had given up, but now, I am dreaming of the day I can walk again.”

As inpatient rehab is highly recommended for optimal results, Daehan has gone the extra mile to create a warm and cosy environment. Boasting a wide range of spacious and personalised rooms that come complete with amenities such as individual smart TVs, sofa bed, water heater, fridge, and more—patients will feel right at home so that they can focus on what matters most: their recovery.

Daehan will continue going above and beyond with medical breakthroughs to better meet the needs of their patients—and assure them that when they choose Daehan, they are choosing a second chance at life.
