Remote consulting
How do we work, and what are the benefits?
We provide remote consultations to people with spinal cord injuries who are facing physiological changes in their bodies, as well as questions about the preparation of disability documents and obtaining rehabilitation aids and hygiene products from the state – we advise them on what to do about it and how to continue organising their daily routine and their lives in general.
Now, a person with a spinal cord injury can get information and improve their quality of life without leaving home. We also provide counselling to relatives and close friends of people with spinal cord injuries.
Through remote counselling, you can learn helpful information on the following topics
- pressure ulcer prevention and positioning
- bladder and bowel management
- types and selection of hygiene products
- wheelchair skills
- mobility and self-care
- sexual and reproductive health
- travelling by car and train
- recommendations for registration and determination of disability group
- training and employment
- rehabilitation and much more
The Remote Counselling Line is staffed by people who have gone through a similar journey, acquired the necessary skills and adopted practices from professional specialists, received training as physical and occupational therapists and shared their experience with other people with spinal cord injuries.
Our consultants are constantly improving. They attend training and other courses from international organisations and specialists working with spinal cord injuries to keep up to date with modern methods and legislative changes. All advice given during the consultation is based on evidence-based medicine, the laws of Ukraine, and 31 years of experience in the active rehabilitation movement.
