Home Program

A Home Programme in rehabilitation science refers to a structured set of therapeutic activities, exercises, and strategies designed by rehabilitation professionals—such as physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, or special educators—for individuals to carry out in their home environment. This program is tailored to the specific needs and goals of the individual, often focusing on improving motor skills, communication, cognitive abilities, daily living skills, or behavioral development. Home programmes are particularly important for children with developmental delays, disabilities, or after an injury, as they provide consistent, ongoing support beyond clinical sessions. They also empower families by involving them directly in the rehabilitation process, reinforcing therapy outcomes through regular practice in familiar surroundings. The ultimate goal of a home programme is to promote functional independence, enhance progress, and ensure continuity of care in a comfortable and supportive setting.
