Why Early Rehabilitation Matters
The first days and weeks following a spinal cord injury are among the most important stages of recovery. During this period, appropriate rehabilitation and support can significantly improve long-term outcomes and quality of life.
Unfortunately, many spinal injury survivors in developing countries have limited access to specialized rehabilitation services and information. This often leads to preventable complications such as infections, pressure sores and emotional distress.Early rehabilitation helps survivors:
- Understand their condition and treatment options
- Prevent secondary complications
- Improve mobility and independence
- Strengthen emotional well-being
- Build confidence and hope for the future
Families and caregivers also benefit from receiving guidance on how to safely support their loved ones throughout the recovery process.
At SISS Uganda, we believe that every recovery journey deserves an early start. Through education, peer support and rehabilitation guidance, we are committed to helping survivors begin their journey towards independence and meaningful living.
